Beaver Trail

Length: 0.5 miles

Difficulty: Moderate/difficult

Along this trail, hikers will walk along the slopes of the Beaver Pond, where evidence of beaver activity can be seen. Under the shade of tall beech trees, unique plants grow. Hotspots highlight these plants, such as native orchids and mosses. Past the Beaver Pond, the trail changes into a secondary succession forest – a landscape dominated by young, skinny trees that hints at the former use of the land for farming.
