Exploring the North Side of the Quabbin Watershed via Gate 22
4 miles - Moderate
Join us for a 4-mile out/back hike on Quabbin’s north side of the watershed. We will be walking down to the water on a dirt road through the forest. Walking to the water, the hike covers 2-miles and drops 180 ft. in elevation. We will then backtrack and head back uphill the way we came.
Please dress appropriately for the weather and bring water and snacks.
Hike begins at Quabbin Reservoir’s Gate 22. The parking area for Gate 22 is located at the end of Shutesbury Road in the town of New Salem. Please do not block the gate.
Dogs are not allowed.
