Tittabawassee Floodplain Preserve Walk

Opened and dedicated in June 2024, this new nature preserve hugs the east side of the Tittabawassee River between Bailey Bridge Road in Midland county and Hayes Park near Freeland in Saginaw county. As part of an ongoing process to restore biodiversity in previously-farmed areas, invasive species were removed and native plants were added over the past two years. A paved 3.2 mile hiking and biking trail winds through the preserve with additional mowed trails for recreation. Join Jeanne Henderson to observe the variety of plants in the meadows and potential wildlife, as we walk 1 to 1 1/2 miles on paved and grassy trails.

Meet at the Bailey Bridge Road parking lot, which is about 1 mile south of the Gordonville/ Salzburg - Saginaw Road intersection (off Saginaw Road). Parking is limited so please carpool. A port-a-potty is there. Wear closed-toe shoes and a hat; bring water and insect repellent. Camera or binoculars are optional. For more information call 989-225-0059. The public is welcome to attend.
