2022 Kid-Friendly Hiking Trail

ChesLen Preserve

Tire the kiddos out on a family-and-pet-friendly hike at ChesLen Preserve, where you’ll find much more than just nine miles of unpaved trails. The main attraction is Ollie Owl’s playground — a natural play space with a wooden seesaw, tree stumps perfect for climbing, a log bridge, and a shallow stream that begs little ones to try their luck at stone-skipping.
