Powered by GoogleBeautiful place with great hiking trails and beautiful babbling Brook.
Center is well maintained and lots of good trails! Trails are well marked and used, even in the winter. Leashed dog friendly and all dogs were very well behaved.
Very easy trails, mostly flat. Clearly marked and easy to follow. Good for kids. Bring bug spray, we would’ve been eaten alive otherwise.
Not particularly difficult trails but a nice place to spend the day
Great find for awesome wander with the dog.
