Short trail, but I was SO grateful that every dog walker(and I passed maybe four or five) had their dog leashed!!!
THANK YOU!!!!
I am medically fragile and love walking outdoors but so few people leash dogs anymore!
This meant so much to me.
Thank you!!!
There is a large parking lot as well and bags for dog poop and benches if you need a rest.
Bring your jogging shoes not your hiking boots. It’s fully paved and well marked. It’s a nice walk.
Great easy trails. Wish there was a little more parking, but in weekends you might also be able to park at the middle school too access the trails from that end.
Beautiful, well-maintained walking trail. Mostly boardwalk with a small section of paved path. Perfect place for a fall afternoon!
Access to Norwell Recreational Bikeway and the Donovan Wildcat Trails. The Donovan and Wildcat Trail lead to the Hilltop Trail. Well marked and mostly maintained. There were a few branches on the path that needed to be moved. One on Hilltop Trail that needs to be cut before moving, will get if still there next time.
