The trails provide access to a variety of habitats. The yellow trail at the main entrance off Quaker Lake Road, the most popular, leads to a striking gorge with cascading waterfalls and majestic hemlocks. Other trails cross wetlands, where beaver may be seen, bobolinks and bluebirds. For those less inclined, or unable to hike on the trails, easy walking can be enjoyed on Quaker Lake Road, a dirt road with little traffic, and a good alternative to sample this special region which is so like the Adirondacks. Park at the main entrance to the Reserve.
Quaker Lake is private property.
Please do not trespass or disturb vegetation or animals in the reserve or at the roadsides. Trail maps are available at the information stands located 200' from the trail heads. Along with unique plant communities and centuries old hemlocks, the ridge is home to coyotes, foxes, deer and wild turkeys. Bald eagles and osprey visit the glacially carved pond area. Open dawn to dusk.
