Glacial Park Conservation Area - Nature preserve in Ringwood - 6705 State Rte 31, USA

Came here a couple days ago in mid-October for a walk along the trail and I can say it is a very beautiful area. I am sure the marshland looks even better in the warmer months but there was a tinge of red and orange across the prairie and it looked really nice. We only walked about a mile or so into the trail but I definitely want to come back and explore more

We went 7.3.23. when you first pull into the area there is no posted speed so use caution. There is a rentable pavilion pretty immediately on the right. Many of the areas were blocked off. There was no hiking trails by the house/barn and only one noticeable trail by the hall. We drove around the visitors center parking area but there was no trail visible from the lot and the buildings aren't pet friendly. So we found the outhouses and there were three trails by that. We took the easier one, hiked for 30 min and then went back. There were a lot of bees/wasps/hornets, but also a lot of butterflies. I saw at least 5 different types of birds. I didn't see many of rabbits or chipmunks, but my dog sure did.

Beautiful scenic views, trails for a short walk or longer hike, and lots of wildlife. Birdwatchers will love it! Very updated, clean and informative visitors center to learn about the area and history. Great place to take the family. Very nice person at the front desk to answer your questions. Cozy little library if you would like to just sit and relax and read a book. Free parking and admission.

A great place to hike and see glacial formations up close.

Very scenic location with many things to do. First parking lot you'll pass is right next to Prairie Trail with room to park your trailer or car if you want to ride. Further back there are wooded hilly trails, nature center and outdoor amphitheater.

Great hiking trails. Dog friendly (Leashed)

This is a great park. Lots of room to move around. It's got some nice trails and good views. The visitors center was very nice and the staff was exceptional.

If you enjoy hiking or fishing, this is the place to go. Climb to the top of the kame (gravel deposits left behind by ancient glaciers) and enjoy the spectacular views. The nippersink creek provides for kayaking or fishing. A variety of terrain makes for a great day spent outdoors.
