White Memorial - Beaver Pond Trail — Attraction in Morris

This is a beautiful trail system. My friend and I hiked the beaver trail segment past Teal pond. We started at the trail head on 63 at the intersection of 61. There is a strip of parking on the edge of the road for about 5 or 6 cars depending on how well cars are parked. The trail was covered in snow mostly but had been packed down for x country skiers so very walkable. I recommend taking a snapshot of the trail map so you can orient yourself with all the intersecting trails. We forgot so retraced our steps to go back to the car. A map would have made it easy to make the hike into a loop. Families with young children, dogs, couples and seniors were out enjoying the trails. Even so it didn’t feel crowded. Gentle hills and beautiful scenery made this an easy to moderate hike/walk. Fun to see evidence of beavers...

40 miles of trails and 4000 acres of forest and wetlands. Lots of picturesque scenery. These trails are beautiful. Bantam Lake and Bantam River ate both accessible by White Memorials Point Folly Marina and boat launch at 123 North Shore Rd in Litchfield. #hiking #biking #habitat #snowshoeing #nature #fishing #camping #wildlife #horsebackingriding #bridletrail #museum #bantam...

Great trail around amazing beaver ponds on a mild and bit rainy morning - the fog over the marshes and ponds was magical! So much green for December - small stands of soft pines, large groups of mountain laurel that must be beautiful in bloom. Bring the trail map as I did get off course and had to walk on a dirt road then Rte 63 before heading back...
