Sibley Volcanic Regional Preserve

There are about ten miles of trails including a trail leading up to Round Top (elevation 1763 ft.) that is made up of lava and volcanic debris left over from a 10-million-year-old volcano. Other trails pass through ridgelines and ponds.  The visitor center offers a self-guided brochure for observing the local geology.

Operating Hours

Open from 7 AM to 6 PM (winter months) or 10 PM (summer months).

Disabled Access

Round Top and Quarry roads are paved and there is a 600-foot, paved wheelchair path north of the visitor center that ends at a viewing platform.
