Totally worth a trip! A great walk, beautiful no matter the weather. Definetly worth stopping by. It's an easy hike. Easy to access even for someone with disabilities. Lots of other hiking trails as well. Several miles of them.

Absolutely beautiful! Trails through big are composite for ease of walking. Other trails are well maintained. Lots of pine trees and the smell was AMAZING!

Bogs are magical places. High endemism of plant species and all adapted to the wet acidic and eventually temporary habitat.

My five year old son and I enjoyed this the other day. I was a huge fan many years ago when I lived in Bangor, so was excited to take my son while in Maine visiting my parents. It’s an excellent educational hike, even terrain, great for all ages. Free of charge but I highly recommend leaving a donation in the box if you can. Highly recommend! Check out our vlog on our experience on Hammocks to Coasters on YouTube.

Exceeded our expectations! What a cool place. Like nothing we've ever seen. Great walk to throw in your Bangor/Orono itinerary. Was a little busy on a holiday weekend Saturday but still felt peaceful and enjoyable (as nature should be). Really cool plants that we havent seen before. Truly a unique place. Such a treasure. So glad that we took the time for this quick little walk. Would love to explore this are more on our next visit to the area.

Peaceful walk (barring folks that are determined to have phone calls on speaker in the wild)on boardwalks through varying habitats. I went looking for birds and to stretch my legs on a beautiful day. Found it to be a quaint surprise of beautiful scenery on sure footing. Many birds and spring wildflowers. Numerous places to sit and enjoy the sunshine.

Great boardwalk stroll! Flat and stable boardwalk with plenty of places to sit. 509 pieces of walkway. Fantastic views of the open space that you normally can't see without getting your feet wet. Great volunteer at the beginning who gave good info. Remember to leave a donation.

An absolutely awesome experience. The boardwalk is fantastic and offers a wonderful opportunity to see habitats that are not usually accessible. Everything was well maintained, laid out and signpostey.

It is also flat, which makes it a leisurely and easy outing.

It's very popular, so people resorted to parking along the streets approaching the park.

I highly recommend this preserve and would come back for more in a heartbeat.
