Location: Thayer Brook Preserve, We’ll meet at the trailhead parking lot at 92 Ramsdell Road in Gray

Registration: Limited to 12 people. Sign up here!

Curriculum: Have you ever wondered what life is like for beavers in Maine? Join us at Thayer Brook Preserve as we uncover the mysteries of this remarkable animal, its role in the ecosystem, the history of our relationship with beavers, and the ways they shape the landscape around us.

We’ll go on a guided walk over the frozen beaver marsh where, conditions permitting, we may get up close to a large beaver lodge and look for signs of wildlife activity along the way.

Please plan for a 2-hour hike over uneven and slippery terrain. Wear warm layers and micro spikes for traction.

Get Out! Nature Walks are volunteer-led, regular trips with trained master naturalists offered jointly by Royal River Conservation Trust and Chebeague & Cumberland Land Trust.

Guides: Margaret Reimann, Anne Payson, and Steve McPike

Get Out! Nature Walks

These Get Out! Nature Walks are volunteer-led regular trips with trained master naturalists. Join us for a well-planned, no cost, guided adventure. Monthly on the fourth Wednesday; always free; rain, snow, or shine. Jointly offered by both CCLT and the Royal River Conservation Trust, the walks take place at preserves in the towns of Chebeague Island, Cumberland, Yarmouth, North Yarmouth, Pownal, New Gloucester, and Durham. Our curriculum is targeted at adults and engaged youth. Because the purpose is nature observation, we ask that dogs do not join us. Email us with any questions.
