Gilsland Farm, Maine Audubon 2.5
miles
The Gilsland Farm Center is the headquarters
of Maine Audubon. Visitors on foot are
welcome on the property anytime from dawn
to dusk, seven days a week, year-round.
To protect wildlife and habitat, Maine
Audubon requests that visitors do not bring
pets or bikes to the sanctuary. Detailed
maps are available at the environmental
center. During winter months, snowshoes
are available for rent.
The sanctuary's 65 acres include a dirt
and grass trail network through the marsh
along the Presumpscot Estuary. Trails wind
gently with a moderate slope through the
various habitats. The main trailhead is
located near the front door of the environmental
center at the end of the driveway. From
there one can access all of the trail spurs
and junctions. |
