CERA Interpretive Trail

The CERA Interpretive Trail is a .6-mile self-guided tour that winds through the larger portion of CERA.

A wooden post located along the CERA trail with the number 2 on it.

Along the trail you can learn about the ecology and natural history of the area. You will be guided by thirteen numbered wooden posts that are placed along the trail.

Trail posts are each assigned a number; there are thirteen trail posts in all. These numbers can be used with the CERA Trail Guide to learn more about the area.
