Hike More - Worry Less

Why not increase your time spent in the great outdoors this fall? Let nature sink in and wipe away your worries! Participate in three hikes on three of our Preserves, and earn a well-deserved badge with the expression "Hike More Worry Less". You can hike on your own or join in on our guided hikes. See schedule below:

​

​

Hike at Koons Preserve- Saturday, November 7th at 1:30 PM Park across from entrance at 195 Spruce Brook Road

Distance is approximately 1.5 miles.  All wooded trails with some steep hills.  

The Koons Preserve is a 40-acre parcel named in honor of Walter and Harriet Koons, who had long admired the property and assisted in its acquisition.  The primary scenic feature is the rocky ravine and the numerous waterfalls that are formed when Spruce Brook drops 170 feet as it flows through the property.

If you would like to complete the hiking challenge independently, hike at least once per month (September, October, November) at three SLT Preserves of your choice.  Once your hikes are complete, send a note with your home address (and photo if possible) to: jstuart@southburylandtrust.org. Badges will be sent via mail.
