These city woods contain some beautiful white pines that soar high above the trails. Hopefully they can survive the rigors of coming storms. In addition, there are mature Red Cedars and stands of Beech, Hemlock and Balsam Firs.

The trails are wide, flat, and even for the most part, and link up to Bangor Hill School. The 25.5-acre preserve offers a shady, peaceful place to walk.

Directions: The main parking area is off Grandview Avenue, about 500 feet on the left after Hobart Street, which is the high school entrance road. If you’re coming the other direction, the parking area is about 930 feet after the intersection of Grandview Ave. and Whisper Drive.
