Wednesday Walk at Tower Hill Preserve

August 23, 2023 @ 8:00 am - 9:00 am

Join us at Tower Hill Preserve in Chaplin, CT.

The yellow loop through the Tower Hill Preserve is approximately 1.3-miles long. We will be walking on long-abandoned farm roads through an oak forest that provides important habitat for nesting birds and mammals.   We will take the short red spur trail to Stonehouse Brook where you can sometimes view an intermittent waterfall on the far hillside.

Click HERE for a trail map and directions to the preserve. Please note that the Preserve does not have its own address and is located between house #96 and #154. GPS coordinates are: 41.800, -72.140

*Parking will likely be on the grass as you enter the property. (We’ll have signs posted at the property if this changes.)

The walk begins promptly at 8:00 a.m. and will be cancelled in the event of rain. Bring water, bug spray or net, and appropriate hiking gear as needed.

I will post on Instagram and Facebook as well as this page if we decide to cancel the walk due to weather or other, unforeseeable circumstances.

If you have any questions or concerns, please call me, Michelle Poudrette, the Development and Communications Manager, at (860) 429-9023, or email me at michelle.poudrette@joshuastrust.org. Registration is not required.

 

We look forward to seeing you in Chaplin.
