This is not a place to go deep in the woods and the trails are pretty short but it's nice and clean and well maintained, good place for a walk and maybe a picnic.

The rock faces around here are great to scale, and the lakes around here are more than kayak-friendly. Don't miss out on this outstanding slice of nature!

However, we did not see or hear any frogs. It was not that muddy even in spring. The entrance is a rutted dirt road and parking is on gravel. This is typical New England woodland habitat but with houses visible along the trail. It's not "pure nature" but is good if you aren't able to handle strenuous hiking.

This was one of the best trips I've been on. A friend of mine who had taken another trip with SUP…read moreYO invited me to go with her. There were 12 of us and everyone got along. I don't know if the type of vacation (hiking and camping) helped to self select the people but by the end of the week we had gotten really close as a group. SUP YO also picked amazing guides. They were fun, funny, knowledgeable, and basically one of the gang with guide authority. The owner of the company came with us on this trip. She was fun, did everything we did, never put on any airs, and I felt like she was "one of us.". All of the food, hotel, etc was taken care of. We even celebrated a birthday for one one of the hikers in the group! I am looking for more trips to go on with SUP YO and a group of us are planning to go in another trip or a weekend hike together again!!

It has smooth, wide pavement which would be excellent for wheelchairs, but motorized vehicles are not allowed. Bikes, pedestrians, and dogs are. Like the West Fitchburg Steam Line Trail, this wends its way along a formerly industrial landscape, but also homes and homeless encampments. A man who lived in one of the adjacent houses in Fitchburg told me things have gone pretty well though residents were denied a fence. Interestingly I did see fencing on the Leominster side. There are businesses nearby where you can use the bathroom (I recommend the Four Points Hotel in Leominster) or grab something to eat or drink. Hopefully in the future some food trucks and other establishments will open along the trail. There are benches to sit and bike racks, and at least one set of tables. The area is strewn with trash and while some churches are apparently going to clean it, it's not going to stay clean because there are no trash receptacles. This is an improvement that could be made. There are also some falls that a loop path to would be nice if the homeless tents were removed. Neither end of the trail is finished yet, in the downtowns of the two cities. When ithey are I will explore those sections.

The rock walk in Fitchburg really opened my eyes more of the history of Fitchburg. Peter Capadaglia…read more brought out the history of Fitchburg with the main concern on the Rollstone bolder and Rollstone hill. The work they are doing for the city of Fitchburg to make this history more excess able and to make it a self guided tour by using QR codes on the granite post through Fitchburg all the way to the top of Rollstone hill. This is being done by all grants which we need to continue this work. Rollstone hill is a Hidden gem that needs to be made known to anyone that visits our great city of Fitchburg. Peter does two guided tours a year one in the summer one in the fall. This summer tour they were able to have the assistance of FATV Fitchburg Access Television. They filmed the tour and are going to make it available to people who would never be able to make up top to Rollstone hill and to others who never heard of Rollstone hill in Fitchburg.

The guide tells you a lot about the local history and his pace is really good. As expected since the tour goes up a large hill into a quarry, there's some steep climbs and lots of loose rocks around, but it was manageable. I know they're working on creating a self-guided option. If you get a chance to do the rock walk, do it!

The first leads to a lake. We saw evidence of a campfire and primitive shelter there, which may be why a warden, who was friendly, was out patrolling. The second is less well maintained but does have lots of blueberry bushes. If you go when they are in season they would provide a nice snack. There is a sign along the highway for moose but we did not see any, nor any other fauna. Foliage is typical for the eastern woodland region.
