About Dunhams Brook Conservation Area
Dunham’s Brook Conservation Area has a range of diverse natural habitats. The trailhead crosses a small meadow before entering an extensive wet forest, a portion of which contains a beautiful boardwalk and provides excellent bird watching. The trail then rises onto a ridge that opens to a cornfield and oak-holly forests. A trail is maintained through the cornfield, creating a unique summertime trail experience. The easternmost trail follows near the edge of an extensive forested wetland/vernal pool community. This area was assembled through three land donations from the Krapf family, the Bush family, and the Roberts family; as well a land purchase made possible with funding from The Trustees, Westport Community Preservation Fund, Massachusetts Executive Office of Energy and Environmental Affairs, and private donors.
