Woodlands Interpretive Trail -- A new trail within the Retreat Trails Network


The Woodlands Interpretive Trail is a moderate one-mile loop within the Retreat Trails network comprised of the Lower & Upper Woodland Trails within the Retreat Trails network of recreational trails in Brattleboro. It can be accessed at the Solar Hill trailhead, located off Western Avenue (behind Solar Hill Yoga and adjacent to the Neighborhood School House).

The Woodlands Interpretive Trail features 18 placards that point out interesting natural aspects of the trail for visitors, such as a spot where lightning struck a tree and the site of granite which traveled there via melting glacier from Dummerston.

A new audio/MP3 recording is available for those who prefer to listen while making the one-mile trek and can be downloaded for free at TheRetreatFarm.com, on the Retreat Trails page.  The public is encouraged to download the MP3 audio tour onto their iPod or other listening device prior to arriving.

The trail was created by local naturalist Lynn Levine. Enjoy!
