Cross River Preserve

Beautiful views of the sunset over the Back River with an easy 1 mile loop hike that crosses nice footbridges over a running stream. I was there on a cold day as the tide went out and heard the ice cracking as the rocks peeked thru.

Beautiful trail. Easy short walk. Amazing views of water. Not overgrown, great trail if you have a pup.

It was just thawing out and very muddy. Do not bring dogs until dryer. Paths are not well marked but it seems busy but not crowded. Quick 1 hour hike

Cross river preserve is probably one of the greatest trails in the region its a nice relaxing hike out to a amazing vantage point that takes you along the edge of a river. There are Also 3 stream crossings with makeshift log bridges with amazing opportunity for pictures. Well maintained in the summer months but like with any trail if you decide to hike it in the winter ware some good boots or hiking shoes and bring some kind of jacket thats good in the wind. Did that recently when we got to the river the wind gusts were in the 60s and sustained at about 25-40 but that's only in the winter or on a stormy day.

One of our favorite short hikes i come here a lot its easy and quiet.

Great spot to take the dogs for a swim in the summer!

Varied topography. Enjoyable 1 hour hike. Take your time and enjoy the flora.

This is a nice short trail(.85 ) loop that traverses woods, crossing a stream to the shore of the Cross River

Fantastic short trail, well maintained.

Simple hike but great for a toddler!
