Take a Hike!
All three trails start near refuge headquarters.
 The
Woodcock Trail
¼ mile paved, wheelchair accessible trail introduces walkers to the American
woodcock. In April and May, the trail is a great place to view its
spectacular courtship flights, for which it is famous.
 |
The Habitat Trail
1¼ mile wooded trail stresses how important proper habitat is for
wildlife. Markers point out signs of wildlife that might otherwise be
missed.
|
The Bird Walk
¼ mile trail through forests rich in birds. Over 220 species have been
identified on the refuge, including 26 species of warblers alone.
50 Miles of Dirt Roads
 Refuge roads are closed to private vehicles. This makes them ideal for
hiking and biking in the summer, snowshoeing and skiing during the winter.
The roads allow access to almost all parts of the refuge, passing through the
habitats of all kinds of wildlife. Maps are available at the office.
The Wilderness Area
 |
Many people enjoy the solitude of walking through the wilderness area, where
nothing mechanical is allowed. Trails though the wilderness areas of both
divisions receive minimal maintenance. We strongly recommend hikers bring
a topographical map and compass. |
