Located just off the Boston Post Road in Rye sits a 147-acre sanctuary known as the Marshlands Conservancy. Forest trails, a large meadow, a salt marsh and a piece of Long Island Sound shoreline can be enjoyed here. It’s hard to believe you are only minutes from town as you step out of your car and into the woods.

More than 300 species of birds have been found at The Marshlands.

Three miles of trail make for great walking or running.

A grassy trail borders the sunny meadow.

The trails lead to the Salt Marshes – a beautiful view!
