Between the rushing sounds of the river, the deep hemlock forest and banks of ferns and wildflowers, a 1.4 mile trail follows along the banks of the scenic Gridley River. You will pass several cascades and small waterfalls on this easy nature-walk. The Preserve is managed by The Nature Conservancy and is an excellent place for walking and observing wildlife. Camping, fires, pets, or wheeled vehicles are not permitted on the preserve.
A hidden gem!! This is a nice easy walk for all hiking levels following a lovely stream with many waterfalls. Well wooded, it’s a great hike to bring the kiddos and the pups, especially in the heat of the summer! While the stream isn’t deep enough to swim, it’s perfect to dip your feet into!
Nice walk wooded trail was poorly marked, hard to get lost though
