This Kennebec Estuary Land Trust preserve offers loops through woods and fields along the lovely Merrymeeting Bay. The trails are well marked and easy to follow. Down the road (Chopps Point Road) is the Coffin Wildflower Reservation if you want to do two preserves in one day! (For years I conflated these two preserves. A terrible mistake! But they’re both beautiful and well worth visiting.)
