Wonder Brook Park

An outstanding tract comprised of one town-owned and two Trust-owned properties totaling nearly 80 acres. The trail threads through upland forest and fern beds, and crosses a brook and streams leading to the banks of the Kennebunk River near the head of tide. This quiet preserve is a picturesque oasis. Noted birds: Pileated Woodpecker, warblers abundant during migration.

Preserve is just .5 mile east of downtown Kennebunk at the end of Plummer Lane; parking is available at the trailhead, information kiosk on site.

The parking area, hills, bridges, trail signs, and other features are all included in visual form over text form. This gives a different experience to people learning the trail system.
