Magalloway River Trail

Photo of the Magalloway TrailEnjoy a Walk on the Magalloway River Trail!

This handicapped accessible trail is about 1/3 of a mile in length and is a good place to view moose, boreal birds and waterfowl.  It features an easy walk through a forested river's edge to an observation platform  overlooking the backwaters of the Magalloway River. The trailhead is located about 1.5 miles north of the Refuge headquarters on Route 16. To view a map of the Magalloway River Trail location, click here.

This observation platform  is a memorial to Warren E. Pearson who helped restore and run the historic Balsams Grand Resort Hotel.  He upheld meaningful traditions of the past, set an outstanding example for the future, and derived much enjoyment from this natural treasure.
