Labrador Hollow Unique Area

Labrador Hollow is a protected natural area that spans a glacier-carved valley with steep rocky walls and includes a pond and a waterfall. The valley has diverse forest coverage and multiple streams running through its landscape.

The land was acquired in 1972 through environmental protection legislation to preserve this region and its ecological diversity. The valley itself formed thousands of years ago when glaciers carved through the bedrock, creating its distinctive shape.

The area attracts bird watchers who come to observe more than 100 bird species in their natural habitats, including warblers and geese. People spend time here to connect with local wildlife and understand the valley's ecological role.

The area features marked trails that connect to nearby state forests, with parking areas along the main roads. Spring and fall offer the most comfortable conditions for walking, as the trails are dry and temperatures are mild.

Tinker Falls waterfall was created over millions of years as water carved through layers of shale and limestone rock. The exposed geological layers are visible today and reveal the earth's history in this area.
