    The Basics

    Arcadia Marsh is one of the most beautiful and diverse nature preserves under GTRLC’s care. The universally accessible boardwalk allows users of all abilities to enjoy this iconic property and experience the unique flora and fauna that call this place home. This is a relatively easy 0.75 mile trail on flat terrain. Wildflowers you can expect to see along the boardwalk include Joe-Pye Weed, Boneset, Blue Vervain, and Spotted Jewelweed.
