Reviews of Chipman Preserve, Southwest Michigan Land Conservancy
"Great place for a hike. Nicely maintained trails with alot of information and benches provided. Didn't see any bathrooms. The parking lot is large and well maintained."
"Wandered up to Chipman preserve in Galesburg for todays adventure. They have redone the trails this year so if you haven’t been you will find a lot different and many old trails closed. Trails were treacherous for not very good at balance me and very muddy/slippery. After falling several times out decided 3.25 miles was enough and we will try on a different day. This is a Southwest Michigan Land Conservancy property. There are over 6 miles of trails. It is kid friendly, dog friendly on leash and free. Not handicap accessible. No facilities so plan accordingly. You will wander through multiple different habitats and there are some hills but nothing to serious. The trails are mostly packed dirt/clay which on days like today can make them slippery. Another reason I always let someone know where I’m at and how long I’m going to be there. Pack a full battery charger, small first aid kit, extra socks, hiking stick and allow someone to track me on my phone. I do have micro spikes but because it was the mud/clay that was the issue and not Ice they wouldn’t have worked well. But hey the kids liked being out and about."
"Paths are marked and long. Next to a farm, sometimes you will see them ride their horses out there. It’s nice to go for walks just be careful for snakes, also a lot of TICKS! If you take the first path to the right and all the way down you’ll find a little meditation hut."
"Nice trails to walk and explore. Plenty to see and fun for all ages."
