This trail is short (about 0.3 mi, one way) but lovely, with an old stone wall to the north and a variety of young trees throughout. On the ground, fresh moose and deer tracks can often be found. The trail ends at a point on Grafton Pond’s shoreline, where the pond's islands can be seen, along with a stunning view of Mount Cardigan.

Trail Directions:

From the parking lot adjacent to the Grafton Pond Dam, walk south on Grafton Pond Road for about 500’. A trailhead is on the left, marked by a green metal gate.

Accessibility Description

This trail has uneven surfaces, possible hazards (i.e. downed trees or branches) and may be muddy at certain times of the year. Parking areas and pull offs are not typically plowed in winter months, and trails may be inaccessible due to lack of safe, off-road parking at this time of year.
