Mt. Teneriffe Preserve
Milton, NH
Mt. Teneriffe Preserve is a 170-acre forest in Milton that contains some notable rare plant species. During the fall of 1997, volunteers built a new one mile loop trail, increasing the total trail to 1.6 miles. This 170-acre preserve is great to visit year-round as it offers beautiful views and interesting woodlands. It is home to a globally rare orchid, the small whorled pagonia.
