Experiences & Amenities

Bird-watching is a big draw year-round at Yellow River Marsh Preserve. Birding is a fun and inexpensive hobby enjoyed by all family members. All you need is a pair of sharp eyes and a good set of ears, and you are on your way to looking for the many varieties of birds that frequent the preserve.

• Having binoculars, sunscreen, water and the proper birding clothing will make your birding experience even more enjoyable.
• Birding opportunities are available from the trail at the Dickerson City Road parking area.

A short nature trail leads you through the prairie to a pond where pitcher plants are in abundance. 

The nature trail is accessed from the parking area located on Dickerson City Road.

Wildlife can be viewed in many areas of Yellow River Marsh Preserve.
