We have not been able to confirm the surface, distance or shape of Warbler Woods Bird Sanctuary yet from its own listing, the park's website or runner reviews — so those cells stay blank rather than guess. What is below comes straight from the listing and from reviewers' own words. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.
Privately owned natural refuge featuring a pond & trails, plus numerous birds & other wildlife.
What runners say about Warbler Woods Bird Sanctuary
“Beautiful trails owner is very personable interesting friendly Gentlemen.”
“This is an amazing sanctuary with easy to use and well-marked trails, tons of different bird species, and easy access and parking.”
“Peaceful getaway from the busy city.”
FIRST THINGS FIRST! Make sure to email the owner beforehand, as the property is gated with a code! All the bad reviews for this place seem to be simply because of this fact, which is incredibly unfair in my opinion. This place is wonderful!
Such a peaceful sanctuary! Maintained well with lots of blinds, feeders, and bird houses. Great variety of open fields and dense covered paths. My favorite bird to spot there is the painted bunting!
Very lovely property! We saw several species of birds and butterflies during our visit. The wild flowers were just about to bloom and I suspect that the place will be much more colorful shortly. The grounds are well cared for and the trails are clearly visible. The owners provide maps and check lists for your visit.
Warbler woods is a bird sanctuary but much more, it is a great place to walk and enjoy nature. It is privately owned no fee is charged, rules are easy but of course consider a donation to help out. Admission is by approval, check their web site.
