Arcadia Wildlife Sanctuary
While walking along Arcadia’s
five miles of trails, look for signs
of white-tailed deer, black bear,
otter, beaver, and other interesting
creatures. The sanctuary’s forest,
meadows, marsh, and wetlands are
great places to explore at any time
of year. Canoe along the river on a
summer’s night during a program,
and you’re likely to see an enchanting
display of fireflies (check the
sanctuary’s program schedule to
register for canoe programs).
