| Roy Park Nature Preserve and Hammond Hill State Forest - trail path covered in brown evergreen tree pine needles. This scenic and inviting 241-acre preserve is a short drive from Ithaca and encompasses portions of an extensive forest, rolling meadows, wetlands, and a rugged stretch of Six-Mile Creek for the Cayuga Lake watershed. The preserve borders Yellow Barn State Forest, Hammond Hill State Forest, and the Cornell Old 600 Natural Area. A universally accessible boardwalk guides visitors over the beaver wetlands. The boardwalk and mile-long trail connect the preserve to more than 20 miles of multi-use trails at Hammond Hill State Forest. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
