Description

Assabet River National Wildlife Refuge encompasses 3.5 square miles located within the towns of Hudson, Maynard, Stow and Sudbury. Formerly part of Fort Devens, this area was known as the Sudbury Training Annex. The U.S. Army transferred 2,230 acres to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service in the fall of 2000. Our primary purpose is to manage these lands for migratory bird conservation.

Assabet River is one of eight refuges within the Eastern Massachusetts National Wildlife Refuge Complex, which is headquartered out of Great Meadows National Wildlife Refuge and located at 73 Weir Hill Road, Sudbury, Massachusetts, 01776.
