Berrien County Directory 2017 - 2018 Galien River County Park
BERRIEN COUNTY DIRECTORY 2017 - 2018 GALIEN RIVER COUNTY PARK The Galien River County Park in New Buffalo Township, was acquired by Berrien County in 2001 with the assistance of a Michigan Natural Resources Trust Fund Grant. The 86 acre park includes a mix of upland and wetland habitats along the Galien River. The wetland area is particularly significant in that it is a part of the larger “New Buffalo Marsh”, a Great Lakes marsh that formed along the Galien River just upstream from the river’s mouth at Lake Michigan. Major improvements were completed to the park in 2014, with the assistance from the Michigan Natural Resources Trust Fund, the Pokagon Fund and Berrien County. The Berrien County Parks Commission included a “Canopy Walkway” that leads through the treetops to a 60’ high “Marsh Overlook Tower” and a 600’ long “Marsh Boardwalk” that leads to a “River Viewing and Fishing Platform” on the edge of the Galien River. Both of these major features are accessible via hard surfaced, and barrier free hiking trails. The park is located on Red Arrow Highway in New Buffalo Township, just north of the intersection with US-12. The entrance is located directly across the road from the New Buffalo Township Hall. The park address is 17424 Red Arrow Highway, New Buffalo, Michigan. BERRIEN COUNTY PARKS Berrien County Parks provide our community with a variety of natural, educational and leisure activities. The Parks and facilities have something for everyone. Enjoy these six locations throughout the county: ➧ Madeline Bertrand County Park ➧ Love Creek Nature Center & County Park ➧ Silver Beach County Park ➧ Rocky Gap County Park ➧ Galien River County Park ➧ History Center at Courthouse Square Berrien County Administration Center 701 Main Street, St. -
