Welcome!

The 3rd and 4th grade students of Journey House spent the 2007-2008 school year learning about the Allen Brook Nature Trail located behind our school. We hiked the trail at least once every month. We hope you enjoy viewing our photos and reading about the trail!

The History of the Trail




The Allen Brook Nature trail is located behind Williston Central School near the Baseball field. The trail was made in 1997, so it’s 11 years old. The trail starts out as a bridge crossing over the brook. Then it turns into northern hardwood forest, and then it turns into a Pine forest. The trail is a 0.4 mile walk in all. Williston paid $5,000 dollars to build the bridge. The bridge was made by the Vermont Youth Conservation Corps.
