We would like to remind everyone visiting Merwin during the busy Spring season about parking. PLEASE DO NOT PARK ON 1925E. IF THE WEST GATE LOT IS FULL PLEASE USE THE NORTH GATE LOT. Thank you and have a great hike! 

Our Mission

The mission of the ParkLands Foundation is to preserve historic natural lands in the middle and upper Mackinaw Valley watershed by protecting, ecologically restoring and managing these lands. Our preserves are dedicated primarily for preserving the biological diversity of native plants and wildlife, and secondarily for passive public recreation, environmental education and scientific research.
