Trails
Soundside Nature Trail: This self-guided nature trail is approximately 0.75 mile
long and will take about 1 hour to hike at a leisurely pace. This little-explored
section of the park contains several different coastal environments, including a
wetland area, grassy dunes and maritime thickets. Interpretive panels along the
trail will provide you with information on the many plants and animals that call
this area home. Please observe the soundside parking lot hours.

Tracks in the Sand Trail: The nature of shifting sand prevents the construction
of traditional trails in the park. Tracks in the Sand is a 1.2-mile self-guided trail
composed of 14 stations. Walked at a leisurely pace, the hike takes approximately
1.5 hours. The trail begins at the parking lot and meanders through the many
environments in the park.

If you prefer a shorter adventure, a 360-foot boardwalk is located near the start of
the Tracks in the Sand Trail. Interpretive displays along the route offer information
about the plants and animals found in the area. A deck with benches is the
perfect place to take photos or sit down and take in the sights and sounds.
