Institute Woods

This was a very pleasant walk through the woods. The paths were wide. The bridge was in good repair. A nice free outdoor activity.

Very nice place to go and sit out in the sun, enjoy a nice hike by yourself or with a friend, and tons of history, flat trails, well groomed, couple small mud spots, you can bike, have a dog leashed, and just explore. You can walk for hours. We used the recommended 3.2 mile loop, which took you to all the highlights, and we tracked our progress via cell phone google maps, the trails could get a bit confusing but cell service and google maps worked fine. There are markers early on in the trail, but they eventually become far and few between. 3.2 mile loop took about 1 hr 30 minutes at a leisurely pace with some small stops to sightsee.

I can’t say enough about this place! So much history and the hike was nice. The swinging bridge was exciting and scary but my kids love it! The Clark House is so cool that you can go inside and read up on the battle. Just amazing

Nice trails love Loring the swinging bridge and fun to explore. Definitely recommend although makes you take a picture of the mat before entering because some of the trails aren’t marked and you could get lost otherwise that I would definitely recommend.

The trails were a joy to explore. We saw many animals during our hike. You must visit the bridge! There are no signs but you need to go towards the water. The bridge actually brings you across to the DR canal where there is a flat walkway along the river. It's a great place to walk, run, and ride bikes.

However, the trails aren't as well marked as it could be but it doesn't seem you can get lost since they all seem to connect.

No bathroom facilities on the trails.
