Moraine Prairie Loop

From the parking lot, take the trailhead that goes out the east side of the parking lot under the power lines. You are almost immediately faced with a trail junction. Stay left. Shortly after the trail junction, the trail will turn to the right into the forest. This is a very nice section of trail that winds through mature forests. The trail is extremely easy to follow. The trail will emerge onto the prairie. Just before the road, take a right and follow the trail though the prairie back to the parking lot.

The Moraine Nature Preserve is State Nature Preserve and protects over 800 acres of forested moraine. It protects a diverse landscape of ravines, rolling hills, lakes, and potholes left over from the last ice age.
