Reviews of Hammel Woods - Route 59 Access
"Parking available. Paved, smooth trail. Stroller friendly. There are natural surface paths you can take also thruout."
"Great hiking trails, good views looking down over the river. Great for sledding too, if you're here in the winter! The birds and squirrels are a treat too. We saw a bunch of different birds all hanging out together, right next to a lil squirrel."
"Nice place to walk. Trails are clean, woods are nice and they have a bat house for “bat watching”."
"Review is for the river access. They really did a nice job removing the dam. (It had a great portage to begin with) You now can park and access the river from the parkin lot. No need to lug you rear to the dam. Nice curves cement walk to the river. Some step stones for fisherman. Water levels are low everywhere, but removal of the dam I do not think made a huge difference (2021)"
