Payson Park, Warren

QUICK TRAIL FACTS

  • Preserve Size: Not sure
  • Trail Mileage: ~.5 miles
  • Pets: yes
  • Difficulty: easy
  • Sights: playground, picnic tables, footbridge, St. George River, old canal system

This is a small park off of Route 90 (Camden Road), with a playground, picnic tables, and a short trail leading to possibly swimmable pools in the St. George River and to the ruins of the old canal system. The trail is not marked, but it’s easy to follow, and there are a few stairs along the way. Unfortunately, you might find the path to be a bit overgrown.

I am adding a photo of a hand-drawn map I saw at the site, but I found it a little difficult to read. It could be there are more trails here?

Directions: The park is on your left a little under a mile from the junction of Routes 90 and Route 1. The park is right before the bridge. To access the trail, cross the footbridge across the river. The paths are on your left.

Let me know if you have any trail updates or corrections!
