Old Growth Woods Field Trip

We will join Matthew Nusstein, Park Naturalist, to enjoy old growth woods along the Moraine Loop Trail. The Moraine loop features its namesake, a section of the Valley Heads moraine, which is the geologic feature that altered the path of the Genesee River some 10,000+ years ago. There are also several swampy bogs, one of the parks tallest white pines and several other species of old growth trees such as cucumber, beech, tulip, maples and more!

Meet at the Humphrey Nature Center, 6773 Trailside Rd, Castile, NY 14427. The trail is an easy three-quarter mile walk on an out and back trail. Bring a lunch to enjoy before the walk. Restrooms available at the Humphrey Nature Center and various locations within the park.
As a reminder, if anyone in your car is age 62 years or more, entry to the park is free for everyone in your vehicle when that senior presents a valid New York State driver’s license.
