This is a flat, dry c. one-mile walk on an abandoned trolley bed that traverses a salt marsh. We will see not only salt marsh plants but a mixture of upland plants as well.
Directions and Parking: Take Exit 56 from I-95 and go south on Leete’s Island Rd. (if coming from the east, first go left onto East Industrial Rd.) At the first four-way STOP, continue south onto Thimble Islands Road. Shortly after the RR underpass, on your left, you will see Willoughby Wallace Memorial Library. Turn right across the street onto West Point Rd. and continue STRAIGHT to a dirt parking area. For your phone, enter Willoughby Wallace Memorial Library, then look for West Point Rd.
