QUICK TRAIL FACTS
- Preserve Size: 30 acres
- Trail Mileage: 0.4 miles one way
- Pets: yes
- Difficulty: easy to moderate
- Sights: Meduncook River, tidal salt marsh
The main 0.4-mile trail descends from Route 220 to the shores of the Meduncook River. There is a tiny place to stand amidst the brush to look out over the water.
The Midcoast chapter of the Maine Audubon protects this spot. (I didn’t see anywhere on its site specifying that dogs are not allowed). The organization’s trail description says there are several trails at this small preserve, but I only saw one clear one that led down to the shore. Waterfowl, shorebirds, and more than 80 species of songbirds may be seen, depending upon the season.
Directions: The preserve is off Route 220, 1.6 miles south of Waldoboro, on the right if you’re coming from town.
