Sandel Legacy Trail

More About Sandel Legacy Trail

Sandel Legacy Trail extends for 2/3 of a mile along a former railroad bed in the heart of the village of Sunbury. Walkers can see a variety of interesting plants they won't find elsewhere in Preservation Parks, including horsetail and common mullein. Watch for the catbirds, groundhogs and other wildlife as you enjoy this quiet gravel trail. Funding for the trail conversion was provided by a Nature Works grant. The Trailhouse, which was a former depot, was purchased in 2002. In 2011, Preservation Parks leased the Trailhouse to the Delaware County Model Railroaders. The group has created a model railroad set-up, with multiple tracks, trains and buildings. Public open houses are held one weekend per month
