Camp Rivendale and Jenken's Estate
2 miles round trip
Rivendale is part of the 68-acre historic Jenkins Estate, an English-style country estate that is listed on the National Registry of Historic Places. The grounds have a few miles of trails and natural areas. The Jenken's Estate which is accessed by the trails from Camp Rivendale has maintained gardens, a fish pond, a foot bridge and lots of open grassy areas.
We chose this hike because it was the first snowy day of the year and we did not want to travel far. Jenken's Estate is only about 4 or 5 miles from our home. The roads and ground around the area was covered in snow, but the trails which are covered by evergreens did not have any snow. It was a pleasant hike but very cold.
