A fairly short loop trail about 1 mile in length that passes boulder features, rock walls, and many wetland habitats. There are some good views from the loop, but a short walk down a spur trail heading Southwest leads to an open scenic area offering an excellent view of Pawtuckaway State Park cliffs and Dead Pond. with only a few steep hills and narrow walk ways, this trail can be walked by almost anyone. With great views and a gradual gradient, this trail is perfect for people of all skill levels.
