The Learn family has had a longtime residency in the Tannersville area. In 2011, the family created a lasting legacy by permanently protecting their property with a conservation easement. The easement allows for public access to the eastern 15 acres of the property, which includes more than one third of a mile of the Pocono Creek.
A loop trail winds through the floodplain forest, where we've placed a total of four geocaches, and features impressive displays of spring wildflowers. Trillium, jack in the pulpit, trout lily, and wild geranium are just a few of the wildflowers that have been spotted on the property, as well as various birds. Spring is spectacular here on the trail.
The southwestern portion of the property is not open to the public. Please respect the landowner’s privacy by staying on the trails, which are marked with white diamonds.
Parking is available within designated spots at the parking lot of the old Northampton County Community College on Old Mill Road.
Visitors should exercise caution as they cross Old Mill Rd to access the trailhead of the Learn Preserve. Hunting is prohibited on this property, but it is known for its excellent fishing.
