Common questions
Where do I park, is it obvious?
There are two small DNRT lots half a mile down North Albro Avenue from North Hixville Road, but the access road is single-lane dirt and unplowed in winter, so it can feel remote.

Free lot (free).
Is there an entry fee at Newfield/Wernick Farm Conservation Area?
Not confirmed; check the town's page before you go.
Can I bring my dog to Newfield/Wernick Farm Conservation Area?
Off-leash under voice control per DNRT's standard reserve policy (no reserve-specific exception listed)
What rules should I know at Newfield/Wernick Farm Conservation Area?
