Great little spot for a hike. Birds, Fish- and other wildlife abundant in this area.
A nice mile long loop trail that goes through prairie, light woods, and a more denser wooded area along a ravine. Definitely an easy hike. Not crowded at all. Pretty muddy in some areas, especially considering that it hadn't rained for some time when I was here. There are several benches at great look out spots above a small creek. Lots of birdwatching and plenty of parking.
Three Oaks Township owns property adjacent to the Kesling Nature Preserve and complimentary trail systems are being developed to provide access to additional surrounding natural areas, combining to protect nearly 100 acres dedicated to conservation.
Please call our office (269-324-1600) by the Thursday before the workday to let us know you're coming, to join the carpool, or to get directions. Or, you can email Mitch Lettow at lettow@SWMLC.org. Anyone is welcome to pitch in to help keep our preserves up to snuff.
