These
are the places where freshwater mixes into the sea that sport an
amazing variety of life. And the South Slough National Estuarine
Research Reserve in Charleston offers an up-close look locally at
the unique habitat, with an interpretive center and a number of
hikes into the area around South Slough.
A
3-mile trail from the reserve's interpretive center (4.5 miles from
Charleston on Seven Devils Road) leads hikers down to the estuary,
where they can see a variety of plant and wildlife.
The
Wasson Creek trail, off Hinch Road one mile past the interpretive
center, is a shorter (.75-mile) trail through the land of pioneer
George Wasson.
The
interpretive center is open Monday through Saturday from 8:30 a.m.
to 4:30 p.m., and can be reached at 888-5558.
