We recommend wearing closed-toe shoes for comfort and safety. Please bring water, sunscreen, and insect repellent, as the Preserve can be buggy at times.The walk will cover approximately 1.5 miles across various terrains, including wooden boardwalks, tree roots, and sandy paths, with frequent stops along the way.
