Join us in exploring the Erwin S Wilder Wildlife Management Area in Norton. We will enjoy a walk through open fields and forested uplands consisting mostly of oak, maple and white pine, with several small red maple swamps. The Snake River will be viewed along a wide section of marshland. This 651 acre preserve is part of the Hockomock Swamp area and home to many wildlife. Signs of deer, turtles and other creatures that live here will be viewed.

Sturdy footwear recommended. Pups welcomed on leash. No restrooms available.
