Stony Creek Preserve
Description
This short trail loops through a peaceful mix of open fields, quiet forest, and tidal marsh views just outside the village of Stony Creek. The path is mostly flat and well-marked, making it easy to follow and great for a quick walk. Along the way, hikers pass remnants of old stone walls and granite outcrops from 19th-century quarrying activity. The preserve offers a unique blend of natural beauty and subtle history, with views of the nearby creek and the surrounding wetland habitat. It’s a quiet and scenic spot not far from the shore, ideal for a casual walk or birdwatching.
