Wooded ridge section of the Metacomet-Monadnock Trail offering forest scenes, ridge-top vistas and seasonal foliage. Best at golden hour and in fall for color; spring for fresh greens and wildflowers. Small trailhead parking on Sikes Ave; no fee but limited spaces. Trails are moderate—wear hiking shoes, check weather and trail conditions. Weekday mornings reduce crowding; be prepared for uneven terrain and occasional muddy stretches.
