Drowned Lands Swamp

Drowned Lands Swamp Trails with wetland views and migrating birds. Free and open to the public from dawn to dusk daily.

The trails are primarily packed earth, with some rocks and exposed roots. Trail traffic is low – this is a great place for a quiet stroll.

While winter can be a quieter season on the land, fallen leaves often lead to some of the best views on the trail! Head to these sites for some favorite winter views, each complete with seating:

🍂 Borden's | Trek the Tamarack Trail to look all the way out to the Catskills

❄️ Overmountain | Travel the Kestrel Trail to soak up Catskill and Berkshire mountain views from the Gazebo

🍁 Drowned lands | Head up the Summit Trail to the top of Old Croken Knoll for views of surrounding farms and mountains
