I think the best part of this Somerset Woods Trustees preserve is the section of the yellow trail that follows the edge of a high bank above the stream, culminating at a bench with a view. Through a break in the trees, you can see the stream bend away, out of sight. From the parking area, if you follow the orange trail to the yellow trail, it’s about 0.5 miles to the view.
The other trails are pleasant footpaths, through woods mainly, with a few inclines and declines. The blue trail is slightly wider than the rest; it follows an old woods road or ATV track for much of the way until it swings around to avoid private property and narrows close to the parking area. All the paths are well blazed and easy to follow. The map indicates you can also access the preserve from Malbons Mill Road, but there’s no parking at this trailhead. (This section is not on my map, unfortunately.)
I picked the most delicious blackberries from a bramble near the parking area.
Directions: You can park at the end of Evergreen Drive, off Robin Court .
