Stonebridge Wild Fowl Sanctuary
The trail leads north through a grove of crab apple trees (bloom in May/June) into a meadow (wildflowers all summer long). You can either walk south through the field or west across the field to a wide area of the river (pond). The trail goes south along the river to the 'stonebridge," where stepping stones are set on top of a low dam. Across the river, the path loops to the north and then down the river to Stonebridge Road. Here you can either cross a wooden bridge and return to the parking area or cross Stonebridge Road to the southern portion of the sanctuary. The southern portion is excellent for fishing. The trail leads south along the west bank to an abandoned cement bridge, crosses the river and back up the east side. A short walk up Stonebridge Road returns you to the northern portion. The entire trail is about 0.75 miles long. It provides great dog walking all year and cross country skiing in the winter.
