The Deep River Land Trust offers walking and hiking trails on several of our properties.  Our Florence Bidwell Sanctuary, Guetliweg Preserve, George C. Lyon  Nature Preserve, Rattling Valley Ridge Preserve, Evelyn & Hawthorne Smyth Sanctuary, and Union Street Sanctuary all welcome visitors to their trails. 

A multi-property trail, the Rattling Ridge Trail takes one from the Evelyn & Hawthorne Smyth Sanctuary through the Rattling Valley Ridge Preserve and ends at the Florence Bidwell Sanctuary. The George C. Lyon  Nature Preserve’s yellow trail connects with a neighboring trail at the neighboring Essex Land Trust’s Woodja Hill property and other ELT properties in turn.
