Maurice River Bluffs Preserve
Details
5.5 mile moderate pace hike along the Maurice River. The preserve was the site of a granary and a sand mining operation. Expect many ups and downs, with nothing to hold on to, on the many steps in the preserve. Wear sturdy boots and bring walking poles.
The new wellness garden at the beginning on the Orange and Blue Trails will have accessible, firm trails, picnic tables, and shaded seating areas. The garden will include a wildflower meadow and pine and persimmon groves. The improvements include the removal of invasive plants and the planting of a diversity of native flora.
Bathrooms? There may or may not be one in the parking lot.
The preserve is about 3 miles south of Rt 49 in Millville on Silver Run Road.
Bring lunch, drink and a snack. And bring walking poles.
Arrive 15 minutes early to sign in.
