Seney National Wildlife Refuge

  Attempts to settle this land by logging, burning, ditching, draining and cultivating failed and it became a refuge for migratory birds and other wildlife in 1935. Only a small portion of the 95,238 acres of the refuge is open for motor vehicles but there are many miles of roads to walk or bike along. Pick up a map at the visitor center before exploring the refuge. We walked along a portion of the Marshland Wildlife Drive and even with a map were confused by the many intersecting roads and trails.

The roads are hard packed dirt and gravel so rolling along is fairly easy. We also walked/rolled on part of the Pine Ridge Nature Trail and found it overgrown and difficult to use.

The parking lot is large enough for any RV.   Refuge   46.28819, -85.94483

  1. I've been there. We went through in the car because the deer flies were so BAD! I hope they didn't get you! :-)
