With over 1,250 acres protected by Midcoast Conservancy and with the generous landowners providing access to cross their properties, there’s an extensive network of trails to explore at this preserve.  There’s also a variety of habitats, from mature forest to a hemlock-lined ravine to nearby farms, and more.  The Hills to Sea Trail also connects with and travels through part of the preserve. 

On this hike, we’ll be taking in a good part of the Bog Brook trail, perhaps getting a view of not only a lovely brook and quiet woods, but a view of a marsh as well.  Buck O’Herin, who has long had leadership roles both at Midcoast and with the Hills to Sea Trail, will be joining us to share his knowledge of the trails. 

We’ll be meeting at the trailhead for the Bog Brook Trail on Halldale Road; parking will be along the road near the start of the trail.      

This is one of our 2024 Wednesday Wanders and Saturday Saunters, which will continue through October.    

While there is no age limit for this program, children under 18 should be accompanies by an adult.

This is a free event, registration is encouraged but walk-ins are also welcome.
