Warren Woods State Park is a 311-acre nature preserve and hidden gem just 7 minutes from Warren Dunes State Park. The park features a towering beech and majestic maple forest and the meandering Galien River. Discover the breathtaking beauty of this nature lover's paradise.

There is a quiet, 1-mile trail that follows the scenic river and a nice bridge crossing the river.

The Elm Valley Road park entrance is closed during the winter months. As an alternative, visitors can park along Warren Woods Road near the trailhead.
