This park preserves some of Ledyard's unique glacial remains which formed more than 13,000 years ago at the melting of a glacier. The blue trail passes through a rocky ravine where boulders up to 30 feet in diameter are tumbled on top of one another. The alternative yellow trail bypasses the boulder scramble.

Hike only per Ledyard Conservation Commission.
