Preserve Features
Riverbend is the largest Preserve in the County's open space system, and along with its sister preserve to the north, Goat Island, Riverbend provides the public with eight miles of almost continuous river-front property.
Heavily-wooded, Riverbend contains ash, oaks, elms, hickory, and bois d'arcs and illustrates how this part of the County once looked. It is a perfect location for horse-back riding, wildflower exploration, nature study, or hiking through the wildnerness.
