Timberland Preserve

Guilford

The Town of Guilford acquired the 600-acre
Timberland Preserve in 1975 and the forest
is managed primarily for wildlife habitat, nature-based recreation and education. Comprised of a mixed upland forest, the Preserve offers access to the beautiful Iron Stream, the headwater for the East River. Timberland is part of a large expanse of forest, relatively unfragmented by paved roads or development. This greenway provides ample habitat for fisher and warblers, veery, wood thrush, and other forest-nesting birds. With over 15 miles of marked trails, including the New England Trail and a tree identification trail, visitors are sure to find many opportunities to explore this naturally
rich and unique property.
