Overview

Convenient 148-acre forest park located just two miles from Warrenton. Popular with walkers, mountain bikers, and equestrians.

Description

A chance to explore nearly seven miles of trails. Look at the ruins of a colonial era house and sneak a peek at the grand working horse estate of North Wales.

Naturalists will appreciate a variety of native trees, regenerating forests, and the occasional fox spotting. The open meadows and wildflowers are spectacular in the summer and the trees are gorgeous in the fall.
