Hemlock Bluffs Nature Preserve In North Carolina Is So Hidden Most Locals Don’t Even Know About It
Reconnect with nature in the best of possible ways with some quiet reflection time at Hemlock Bluffs Nature Preserve just outside of Raleigh. Whether visiting the Capital City, or a nearby resident, an hour or two spent within this Hemlock forest is sure to calm even the largest of worries deep within. Here’s more on this hidden locale and why you should visit:
The map where this species of hemlock trees can be found in the Eastern U.S. shows the mountains of North Carolina — and one tiny little green dot in the eastern third of the state. That little green dot is Hemlock Bluffs Nature Preserve. In 1924, an invasive bug was introduced into the eco system in the U.S. and it destroyed much of the population of this tree species and the threat is still very real.
The nature preserve is ideal for kids, but keep in mind there are some stairs to conquer here.
