I really enjoyed the 10-stop nature walk that the Midcoast Conservancy has created for this walk. Pick up a pamphlet at the trailhead and learn about witch hazel, rattlesnake plantain and beech bark disease, among other topics, as you walk along the approximately one-mile trail. The preserve, which borders the Marsh River, is 70 acres.
