Trails: Beginning at the parking lot the trail runs east before forking into two trails, one running north and another east. The northern trail runs along the northern tree line towards the accessible observation deck and is approximately 0.25 mile. The group will follow this trail and then keep walking to continue the loop before ending back at the parking lot.
Grass trails are mowed regularly between May and September and are approximately 6’ wide with 0-8% slopes. For a description on trail surfaces, visit this link on Trail Surface Types (Maine Trail Finder).
