West River Walk

Londonderry: West River Walk

Join Vermont River Conservancy and Londonderry Conservation Commission for a tour of the West River. On this river walk, we will explore the history, ecology, natural processes, and land use decisions that weave together to shape Londonderry’s unique riverscape today.

Date: Saturday, September 14th

Time: 1:00 – 3:00 p.m.
The tour starts at 1:00, but we’ll be tabling at the West River Farmers Market all morning, so you’re welcome to arrive early.

Location: Meet at the Vermont River Conservancy/Londonderry Conservation Commission booth at West River Farmers Market at the junction of VT-100 and VT-11 in Londonderry

Details: This is a guided tour with four stops. We will drive to each stop (carpooling encouraged), then walk down to the river together for a closer look.

Remember to Bring: Whatever you need to be comfortable outdoors by the river on a mid-September day. (Think about: footwear, sun, rain, insects, snacks.) You might want to have a notebook and pen, too!
