Love love love these trails! The parking lots may be packed but youll rarely cross paths with anyone while in there because there are acres and acres of well groomed, well marked trails. Cant wait to see what winter brings ️

We loved it. The large hand built wall is a marvel, and the variety of views in the woods and the extent if the trails is fabulous. Such a wonderful option for local nature lovers!

Trails could have been marked more clearly, but still very enjoyable for walking. Trails were fairly well maintained, more so in some areas than others.

This is a great hiking spot and also a small bouldering area. There a several obvious lines and lots of unknown scrubbing to be done.

I really love the actual trails but the trail markings and which way to go can be difficult to see sometimes. Had to use GPS to navigate back my first time

A great hiking, walking, mountain biking and possibly a good cross country skiing system of trails! I didnt notice any mosquitoes or biting insects. Quite a few side trails. You may see a train go by at the parking area. Entrance is right next to the railroad bridge.I recommend bringing water, comfortable walking or hiking shoes, bug repellent and sunscreen. A hat would be great. If you bring a , you are required to take the droppings with you. The main trail could be difficult for the feet for s because of the rocks. You may want to hike first before you bring Fido.Baby strollers that are designed for trails I would recommend.I look forward to walking in the fall foliage. Parking is free.

Beautiful trails, dog friendly, amazing scenery. Not a lot of parking, but its normally quiet. Dont bring a lowered car though. There is a big dip where you turn off the road and most small cars wont clear it

My grandparents donated 152 acres of forest to the Town of Exeter in 1973 to create this public asset. It warms my heart as Im sure it would have warmed theirs to read that people find peace, recreation, exercise and fun in the woodlands. Enjoy.

Some of the best MTB trails on the seacoast. Do you like rocks and roots and bridges over swampy water? Well buddy this is your new favorite riding spot. No big climbs, so that is not cool. I suppose you could ride the smaller hills a few times in a row? Yeah, that would do it. Park at the railroad lot, not the other smaller lot on Rt.85 unless you want some attention.

Nice place for a short hike or maybe an hour or so. Took our dogs here and had a pretty nice morning walk. Wasnt buggy when we were there and trails were interesting enough.

Its a fun challenging mtb trail network. The map always seems in accurate though so bring your GPS device to help guide where youve been.
