Stigler Nature Preserve

I'll give it two stars because it's quite peaceful and I saw an incredible amount of damselflies, but this property is in desperate need of ecological restoration. Particularly closer to the parking lot, the trail is surrounded by invasive burdock, honeysuckle, buckthorn and more. There's tons of potential with the wetland areas and riparian corridor, but in its current state it's very sad to call this a nature preserve. Hopefully the city or a volunteer group can step up to make this place live up to its potential.

Took a nice quiet walk with the Chihuahua. The trial is wide and mostly covered with wood chips. There are some low laying areas with mud after a rain. There is a cool wood bridge over a stream and I saw a bench to sit there also. Very peaceful.

Beautiful trail right in the middle of an industrial park. Would have never even known this was here if not for Google Maps. It's an easy walk and completely wooded. You feel away from the city even though you can still hear the cars. The creek and bridge was a really nice treat. My daughter loved it.

Not handicapped accessible, no restrooms. Very few benches. But its paths are beautiful and wide enough to social distance. Nice streams and foliage. Bug spray would be an option. Plus need to bring own doggie bag to clean up after 🐕

Picked out by my adventurous 11yr old. Stigler was a solid 12mi bike ride from where we live in Greenfield but the trail was lovely! Wide and well maintained lightly trafficked on a weekday evening but with diverse enough woodsy scenery to make the short hike quite pleasant. Enjoy the photos!
