Maguire Preserve is a beautiful place to walk through a couple types of forest, over packed duff as well as some ledge, and out to Weary Pond, where depending on conditions and how far we walk, we may see evidence of beaver along with any other plants or animals that call the pond home.
On this Saturday Saunter we are planning a leisurely out-and-back hike of three miles total, going over varying forest floor with only small ups and downs. With Maine Master Naturalist Susan Cottle leading the group, we’ll talk about whatever folks are seeing and want to discuss—perhaps some spring ephemerals still in bloom, ferns, lichen, moss, various trees and any critters or signs of critters we might come across. We will meet at the trailhead/parking lot on Heath Road.
This is one of our 2024 Wednesday Wanders and Saturday Saunters, which will continue through October.
While there is no age limit for this program, children under 18 should be accompanies by an adult.
This is a free event, registration is encouraged but walk-ins are also welcome.
