Join us for a moderately easy walk at Banningwood Preserve led by Wendolyn Hill, Lyme Land Trust board member and Town of Lyme Open Space Coordinator. We will visit the newly built platform, Parker’s Perch. The hike is a about 2 miles. Banningwood is a beautiful preserve with meadows, mature forests, cedar groves, and dramatic rock outcroppings. Roaring Brook meanders through it.
There are a few rocky areas so don’t forget to bring your walking stick! Everyone is welcome.
