This small, 25 acre, preserve in located in the heart of the Main Line is has a few miles of hiking trails. Nearest the parking are is an open meadow which is surrounded by woodlands. Off the northern corner of the preserve the trail crosses a creek and connects to another trail that runs along the creek until it reaches Conshohocken State Road (be very careful crossing as the cars come crazy fast around the corner). Across the road the trail continues as part of Henry Lane Park.
Within the preserve there are several trails some that go by the new saplings plantings, some through more established tree plantings, older forest and along a creek that flows into the Schuylkill River and some through the meadow. There scattered about the meadow are benches and bird houses. On the eastern part of the preserve is a 19th century barn and spring house. It looks like the preserve is working hard on reducing invasive vines and other invasive plants.
The main thing this preserve could improve is adding trail markers (could be as simple as those they have at Natural Lands Mariton, ChesLen, Stroud or Sadsbury Woods).
A little small for a hike but still charming.
Very pretty woods, with lots of great running and walking trails. One of the parking lots is right next to a private road however, so make sure to pay attention to the signs.
Great place to go for a walk, walk your dog or just relax.
