consists of over one thousand acres of upland and wetlands in the town
of Shelburne. It is located along the shores of Shelburne Pond,
the largest undeveloped body of water in the Champlain Valley.

Directions
From Main Street in Burlington head south on Spear
Street for 7 miles. Turn left onto Irish Hill Road (which becomes Pond
Road where the pavement ends). Proceed 0.8 mile. Turn left, passing over
an old cattle grate and onto a short road that leads to the state fishing
access. Please park away from the shore along the sides of the access
area. Boats can be launched there. A trail begins on the left and leads
through the upland forest to several scenic sites.
