Self-Guided Tour

Self Guided tour

The reserve is an excellent place to see unique wildlife and habitats.  Explore these habitats along a two-mile loop trail or visit smaller sections at a time.  Along this trail you’ll find 19 interpretive signs with associated downloadable podcasts that provide additional information.  Two turnouts along Slough Road provide parking for birdwatching on the Devereux Slough. Visit the Natural Resources page to see a photographic field guide of most species found in the reserve. Self-guided tours by individuals do not require a reservation.  Group tours require a reservation on rams.ucnrs.org
