I have been here twice and loved it both times. Awesome trails and well marked. A couple suggestions.... Do take a map! We ended up hiking longer than we thought and had to make our way back for an hour in the dark. The map and trail blazes were extremely useful. One trail we found confusing was the French Meadow Cutoff trail. We ended up on a private road because we missed the blazes and took a right instead of a left. Although this might have been because it was dark, it was still confusing! A sign at that point (the trail to the private road between the Nichols Trail and the Eastman Meadow Trail) would have been useful to keep us on the French Meadow Cutoff. Overall though, a great place. Well worth the visit.

About 2,000 acres of trails, ponds, streams. Better of the two main access points is Maple Hill Farm off of Ridge Road in Hollis. For a nice short walk, check the map kiosk and head for Bouchard Bridge or Leatherwood Trail.

They were having an art fair had some beuatiful artwork for sale to support the hiking trails, programs, etc.

The staff here were amazing with our field trip kiddos. So patient. It was a fun and educational experience for everyone. They taught us all about pond ecosystems and then we went ponding to see what different kinds of creatures we could find. Then we learned all about bugs and went searching for some outside with nets. All the kids had an amazing time.

Beautiful, nice trails!

Loved it! Nice trails...including a small story book trail!

This whole property is a state treasure. Rare plants challenge the outdoorsperson. Trails for miles among the waterbirds and herps. Listen to the breeze in the pines and waterfalls at the many beaver dams. Catch a glimpse of the rare Blandings turtle, sunning alongside the smaller painted turtles. Learn to know the native trees and wild flowers with your young friends. All this at no charge -- except your love and appreciation.

Beautiful well maintained trails.

Learn where maple syrup and maple sugar comes from! Oh, and of course hike the amazing courses and trails, too.

Love this place! Excellent trail systems, easy for kids and you can take your dogs (leashed of course)

Beaver Brook Association is a non-profit conservation association, dedicated to the preservation and enjoyment of wild lands in the Hollis area. They maintain a large trail system, host activities at the main barn and surrounding buildings, and host wilderness learning activities lead by local experts on the plants and animals in the region. My favorite activity is the one they do for my kids called forest free time, where kids can just walk on a guided hike once a week, every week, no matter the weather (except dangerous freezing conditions where they will just hang out at the barn and indoor stuff that day). Kids have to learn how to move through the forest no matter rain, snow, mud, streams, rocks, brambles, etc. And they have a hoot doing it. They learn to dress appropriately for the conditions and deal with difficult circumstances. They have other programs too, for adults and kids. I also like the plot of land they lent to the American Chestnut Society, which is growing a large number blight resistant trees. The trees all belong to ACS, but Id love to get my hands on a seedling or five and expand the project to my own property where I have a half dozen blight devastated husks sending up shoots. Im proud my local conservation association is so deeply involved in this worthy project.

The gardens are so amazing!
