Serpentine Barrens Conservation Park

Serpentine Barrens Conservation Park is the name of two protected areas in Montgomery County, Maryland. They cover a total of 288 acres, and protect rare serpentine ecosystems.[1]

The park soils are mapped as a complex association of Chrome, Conowingo and Travilah soil series, all of which are strongly influenced by the serpentine bedrock.[2]
