A gorgeous, easy-access hiking area (with horse trails) that's only a three minute drive from the cabin. There are well marked trails between 2-6 miles great for walking, trail running, and leashed dog walking.

These multi-use mountain biking and hiking trails offer a variety of terrain and are attracting visitors from all over the state and beyond. Once completed, the trail network will be a roughly 40 mile loop. It is currently around 11 miles and cuts through forest and along Hardy Pond. Though it's easily accessible, hikers should keep an eye out for quick-riding mountain bikers and keep pets leashed. A gorgeous way to spend a day!
