Nice long trail. I started off at the Speedway station on Lowell Street, went a mile &1/2, towards…read moreDanvers before I turned around and cane back. It was a VERY hot day and the return trip the sun was bearing down on me, I got over heated and it was a difficult walk back. There are only 2 benches to sit, and they're close together so I had to go a long way before I could sit. Plus a couple of stretches without shade. It was my own fault for going during a heat wave. I'll wait for some cooler weather before returning. I can't wait to see what's further out on this trail.

Great rail trail! Will connect seamlessly to Danvers rail trail in the future. Give it a try You…read moremay like it or not.

I love the safe off road walk. We saw duck, 3 snakes and many turtles. I'll bring my bike next time.read more

Absolutely gorgeous, peaceful, easy swamp trail walk. There is a small parking area off of…read moreTopsfield Road. Wide gravel trail paths head both directions and there are several walks to choose. I opted for the trail down to the swamp walk. It's about .3 of a mile to the swamp walk and then the swamp walk itself is about .3 of a mile. I did the swamp walk twice so my total walk twice around, there and back was 1.3 miles. Lots of shade on the trail to and from, but the swamp walk is mostly sun. The boardwalk areas are sturdy, but a little uneven and slanted in places so you do want to use some caution. There are several stops with benches to take in the scenery. The swamp walk is absolutely beautiful. So quiet and serene. I went in July and saw tons of turtles, birds and even a beaver!

there's not many places to park here only a couple of kinda-spots off the side of the road…read more although this place is not the largest, it has really nice variety in scenery! i'd recommend checking it out.

This was one of the best trips I've been on. A friend of mine who had taken another trip with SUP…read moreYO invited me to go with her. There were 12 of us and everyone got along. I don't know if the type of vacation (hiking and camping) helped to self select the people but by the end of the week we had gotten really close as a group. SUP YO also picked amazing guides. They were fun, funny, knowledgeable, and basically one of the gang with guide authority. The owner of the company came with us on this trip. She was fun, did everything we did, never put on any airs, and I felt like she was "one of us.". All of the food, hotel, etc was taken care of. We even celebrated a birthday for one one of the hikers in the group! I am looking for more trips to go on with SUP YO and a group of us are planning to go in another trip or a weekend hike together again!!

I did this walk a few days ago on admittedly the hottest day of the year. Bad decision. I walked…read more2.5 miles from Beverly to Topsfield Center. The trail is quite flat and gravel cover. I primarily walked it to check out the scale model planners spaced appropriately down the trail from a Sun in Topsfield center. Each display was very informative and Topsfield Center is very quaint. But otherwise the trail is not very interesting and in the blazing heat, the lack of tree cover was very noticeable. Better to do this on a cooler cloudy day.

Kathleen has been walking my two dogs now for a few weeks and I have no idea how we survived…read morewithout her! My 2yo lab / hound mix has (had!) horrendous anxiety! Since Kathleen has been working with him, walks are such a pleasure now. He is checking in and managing his anxiety instead of freaking out and reacting. He loves his trips to Pine Banks to see the ducks and you can really tell they have a routine as he and my older dog practically drag me over there to do their own thing. Kathleen is truly wonderful and we love having her!!

I feel so lucky and grateful to have Kathleen taking care of Benny while I am away. Benny loved…read moreher! My first impression was she loved animals so much! I met her four years ago while walking my dog on the street. I could immediately tell she knew well how to communicate with dogs and she treated them with love, care and patience. I did not realize she was a dog walker at the very beginning but as soon as she told me, I knew she is the one I can trust. For the years followed, I had Kathleen taking care of benny a few times, each time a one or two week long vacation. She never let me down! She was on time, paying attention and very professional. She kept records in detail on Benny's behavior. She had a checklist of her duties and Benny's routine. She had yummy treats (they are even organic!) at her own cost for benny. She gave Benny plenty of exercise time. Recently we moved to Woburn which was about 8 miles away. I was wondering if Kathleen would still come to walk Benny. She did! She still offered me the same low rate which never changed for the past four years and she came with a pot of beautiful flowers as a gift to our new house! That was so nice of her! I am very happy to write my review here (my first review on Yelp) for Kathleen to show my appreciation for her superb service. She is the one who knows animals and loves them. Your pets will love her, and you will, too!
