Its cool as it is on a former US Air Force Base which closed in the early 1980's. The many trails are old roads, that have all been grown over. It is a great place to bring the dogs for a hike. The trails are small loop trails and are very easy to navigate and good for all ages and abilities. Also on the site, in some of the older building, is some sort of a community arts and education center which I can not really comment on. Parking and maps are available. Free and open to the public.

Lots of ups and downs but nothing really strenuous although in the snow or icy weather it can get really slippery. You literally slide right down into the canal when the ice is mean. Perhaps the best thing about this trail is that it goes along the Cape Cod Canal and Bike Path for much of the way. You can watch the people go by on the bike trail or better yet all the boats on the canal. Lots of lovely sailboats, freighters, tankers and tugs pulling barges. You even get to see trains on the other side of the canal and if you're lucky you might see the cool, old lift railroad bridge moving up or down or perhaps a train gong over it. A nice little path with some really nice scenery. The path isn't that long or difficult but you can always park you bike, do the hike and then ride some more on bike path. Makes for a lovely day.
