People feed the geese and then wonder why the geese are all over the beach. Quit feeding them and they won't bother everyone.

As somebody who grew up and Taunton though (and female) I'm not exactly sure if I'd walk here at night... during the day you should be fine but strange people tend to wander here at night. Also, some of the buildings seem better days.

Very walkable trails through peaceful woodlands along the Three Mile River. Good parking, picnic…read morearea with grills available, visitor center, and bathrooms at the park entrance. While a little busy at the parking/trailhead area itself, once you progress a bit through the woods, things quiet down considerably and you're able to find tranquility and splendid isolation to your heart's desire (yes, far from the madding crowd ... good old Hardy). The main trail culminates at a dam with fish ladders and it's impressive to see the torrent of water gushing over. Upstream from the dam, the river flows leisurely and on a beautiful end-of-summer day like this, the water is a pristine mirror. Many trails to choose from (though they tend to be unmarked - but it's hard to get lost as they all tend to loop back to the main): we walked a branch off the main path that ran right along the riverbank; and we found another trail that went by a "fragrance garden" and a little gnome village which added a touch of whimsy. Great for the kids and many dog walkers (and am happy to say, no doggy doo-doo's noted, so glad to see owners picking up after them!)

If you go straight all the way down, you will reach the fish dam. Scattered throughout the trails on either sides are little paths that go to a fragrance garden, gnome village, and pine tree trail.

I really enjoyed the little waterfalls.. The rushing sound of water creates a calming effect and provides a sanctuary away from the bustle of cars.

A great location for a midday lunch! There was even wild life there. Im a nature lover so of course I had to get a picture with it!

A park with a big…read morerock Dighton Rock State Park is named for the famous 40 ton rock that is now located at the park. The huge glacial rock was originally found in the Tauton River but moved to a small museum in the park a while back. The rock has strange petroglyphs on it whose meaning and even origin is very controversial. The rock was known and discussed as far back as the early 17th century and most scholars now believe they were carved by Natives Americans for unknown and forgotten reasons. Of course various other theories like Phoenicians, Vikings, Chinese, Portuguese and the ubiquitous aliens also are tossed around. Like an intelligent species is going to travel bezillions of light years to write on a rock. Beside the famous and enigmatic rock the park has about 100 acres of roads, trails and a pleasant picnic area by the river. Not enough room for any serious hiking but a nice place for dog walking or a stroll through the woods. Unfortunately the museum is only open by appointment so the rock is usually hidden away. However the rest of the park is a nice place for a picnic or to relax. We will probably never know what the glyphs on the rock mean but even without the big and curious rock the park is a pleasant place to explore.

The carvings are difficult to make out. Informational signs are provided to stimulate thought and help you to draw your own conclusion as to its origins and authenticity.
