This program has been CANCELLED due to the 3/14/23 storm.
Please join us for other Quabbin Visitor Center Events.
Join us for an easy 2-mile out/back hike on Quabbin’s west 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 one mile and drops 150 ft. in elevation. We will then backtrack uphill and head back uphill the way we came in.
Please dress appropriately for the weather and bring water and snacks. MICROspikes or YAKTRAX that fit over your footwear, for increased traction, are recommended if snow or ice is expected on the ground.
Hike begins at Quabbin Reservoir’s Gate 16. The parking area is located on the east side of Rt. 202 (Daniel Shays Highway and Prescott Rd) in Shutesbury. https://goo.gl/maps/QHsc4b2DcoXpBqRE6
