Hennig Preserve Loop

The Yellow Trail at Hennig Preserve begins at the signed trailhead on Center Line Road and quickly enters a quiet, forested landscape of mixed hardwoods and gentle terrain. From the main trail, hikers encounter several signed spur trails and intersections that offer opportunities to create shorter or longer loops. These connectors return to the primary route, allowing for flexibility based on time, ability, or interest. The trail remains mostly level throughout, making it well-suited for novice hikers and families. The route winds through classic northeastern woodland with opportunities to spot seasonal wildflowers, migrating birds, and signs of local wildlife. Wetlands and shallow stream crossings may be present during spring or after rainfall, though bridges or boardwalks assist in key areas. While the route is open year-round, be prepared for muddy patches in spring or icy sections in winter. The preserved character of the land and its light foot traffic make this one of the more peaceful day hikes in Saratoga County.
