About This Trail

Imported description

Please note that some parts of the trail may be closed for restoration. There are signs at the park that give most up-to-date information. There is a memorial to a bomber crash site, an abandoned 1940's Boy Scout Camp, and a rock quarry with a waterfall in the New England woodland. The Wolf Hill Forest Preserve is one of my favorite hiking areas. There are eight trails that can be used for lengths from 2 to 6 miles. The trail can be rocky with elevation gains of 200 feet. The trail can be found at the center.
