Bombay Hook NWR has 5 nature trails, 3 with 30ft. observation towers
and
three with interpretive brochures. The trails range from 1/4 to 1
mile in length. Bear Swamp Trail is handicapped accessible with
a
hard packed walking trail for walkers and wheel chairs.
Caution
Some
of the wooded portions of trails on the refuge are bordered by heavy
growths of
poison ivy. Therefore it is best to walk
in the middle of the trails and to avoid brushing against the
vegetation. Also, during warmer months it
is advisable to
use insect repellent and to wear long-sleeved shirts and slacks to ward
off
mosquitoes, biting flies, and ticks.
