Merchants Millpond State Park An "enchanted forest," primitive species of fish relatively unchanged over millions of years, towering bald cypress trees with massive trunks, luxuriant growths of Spanish moss—this is Merchants Millpond State Park. Here, coastal pond and southern swamp forest mingle, creating one of North Carolina's rarest ecological communities. Together with upland forests, these environments create a haven for wildlife and humanity alike. Merchants Mill Pond is one of our state’s rarest ecological communities, situated on 3,250 acres of lakes, wetland, and hiking trails. 71 US Hwy 158E, Gatesville, NC 27938 Map: www.ils.unc.edu/parkproject/visit/memi/memi.pdf Website: http://www.ils.unc.edu/parkproject/visit/memi/home.html |
