[WCB] Heron Bay Marketplace & Nature Reserve
From the parking lot of the Heron Bay Marketplace, walk to Tribe Road No. 6, which is a short distance west along Middle Road (just before the 7th Day Adventist Church). Turn up this Tribe Road and walk uphill to the junction with the Railway Trail then turn left and walk to the junction with Camp Hill Road. Continue up Camp Hill (leaving the trail), turning left onto Spice Hill Road. Walk along Spice Hill Road, past Tribe Road No. 7, turning left at Westmount Lane.
Westmount Lane becomes an unpaved downhill trail that leads to the Railway Trail just above the old TN Tatem School. (Note that the Westmount rail is NOT Tribe Road No. 7.) Return to Camp Hill Road via the Railway Trail, then turn right and walk back towards the Heron Bay Marketplace. Walk into Riddell’s Bay and along the main road towards the public dock. Just before the dock turn right into the Riddell’s Bay Nature Reserve. This reserve is private property, but is open to the public daily from sunrise to sunset. Stay on the marked trails and please respect the roped off areas (there are a lot of seedlings and young trees, and new sod has recently been laid) and please stay off people’s driveways.
Other than that, you may explore the reserve as you wish. The plotted route will take you in a clockwise direction around the reserve (which used to be a golf course), leading you to the old club house. Return to the starting point at the Heron Bay Marketplace.
