The 63-acre Yankee Run Nature Preserve was acquired in 2011, funded by the Monroe County Open Space Program, and a grant from the PA Department of Conservation and Natural Resources. The preserve provides crucial protections for the headwaters of Yankee Run, a high-quality headwater to Paradise Creek.
The Pocono Heritage Land Trust manages this pristine property. Yankee Run Nature Preserve contains a habitat mix of woodlands, springs, ponds, and a headwater stream.
Take a hike through the preserve. Along the way, you’ll pass the remains of the historic springhouse and pumphouse along the stream.
