There are so many trails to choose from at Nickerson State Park in Brewster. You can go for a long hike or a short walk, in the woods or by one of the many kettle ponds. They are all well marked with different colors and different signs. (Click on blog link for other photo.)
This is the trail around Cliff Pond which is marked with a yellow marker on the trees. . No matter where you start it, you can follow the markers or signs and not get lost. Have you ever hiked Nickerson State Park? This is a really pretty 3 mile hike around Cliff Pond.
I do not know much about mushrooms but I thought these were pretty cool growing on the side of the tree. Does anyone know what kind they are? Love the vibrant colors!
I love the Red Maple Swamp Trail at Fort Hill which has a boardwalk where you walk over the bogs which are especially wet this time of the year. (Click on blog link for full photo.)
There are so many glacial rocks at Nickerson State Park left by the glaciers thousands of years ago. These were a few that we saw by Cliff Pond. So pretty… and huge! (Click on blog link for other photo.)
Every time we walk from Doane Rock to Coast Guard Beach, we see this post in the creek by salt marsh near the bridge. It’s been there a lot of years. I wonder what it is from?
What a great place for a bench on the John Kendrick Trail for people to relax and watch the happenings on the river below… whether they be sailboats, motorboats or birds or wildlife. There is always so much to see.
Have you ever hiked the John Kendrick Trail in Orleans? Such a pretty, wooded trail…
