Reviews
Pretty muddy on the wetlands trail, which makes sense. Saw a turtle!
Always something new to see. Great place to find different mushrooms of all kinds.
Such an awesome find! We did the yellow trail. It was beautiful and well maintained. Great place to walk the dogs (on leash). Plenty of space to move off the trail if another dog / person comes by.
Meng Preserve/Stone hill is a great place to go for a quick hike. There are about 3 miles of trails which are mostly easy. there is some interesting geography with a stone hill and trails that lead through a small swamp and around a pond. There is some interesting history there about a copper mine located at the preserve
They put a ton of money into this place, such a nice hidden treasure. The blue trail was a little rough and muddy.
