Philip J. Braun Nature Preserve
Pellston, Emmet County
Hiking Trails | Snowshoeing Trails
The uplands of this property are primarily hardwood and aspen with some red and white pine scattered throughout. Mixed conifer species dominate the lowland areas and riparian corridor. Several large planted ‘wildlife openings’ are established on the upland areas, and recent timber stand management is evidenced by the large amount of regenerating aspen in the southern half of the property. This preserve lies adjacent to the Pellston Pioneer Park and State of Michigan land. A short trail meanders from the parking area to the river.
