More about van Deusen Preserve

Located 0.3 mile on the right after turning off Route 317 with parking along the roadside, the van Deusen Preserve connects to the Baldwin Preserve. A short, planked trail leads down from Bacon Road to a small viewing deck overlooking a swamp, which is home to waterfowl, beaver and other wildlife. Jack’s Brook also intersects this preserve, which was donated by Maidza van Deusen in 1986.
