  • Its cherries are edible and used often to make wine, jams and jellies
  • Among the most important sources of food for forest wildlife, it's a particular favorite of the black bear
  • Can live up to 250 years and grow up to 125 feet tall

  • Easily reach this section, yet feel deep in the woods – with the best mountain views
  • Enjoy a diverse mix of trees, including some of the tallest and oldest sugar maples

Maplewood Ridge runs parallel to Mountainview Meadow and contains the most diverse mix of tree species in the entire forest. Some of the largest and oldest sugar maples can be found here.

As you walk deeper into the forest, the terrain becomes more rugged and rises up from the meadow on a gentle slope, evoking a feeling of being deep in the woods. 

An easy five minute walk from the Welcome House, Maplewood Ridge is the most conveniently located section of the forest.
