A guided walk lead by members of the Hebron Paths and Trails Foundation. This is a great walk for families and we will be introducing other hiking opportunities in Hebron’s open spaces.

Starting at The Pavilion in Burnt Hill Park. The walk will rise through meadows to the woodland, with open views towards the Connecticut Valley. Entering the woodland we traverse a woodchip trail seeing heritage dry-stone walls. We will reach an abandoned town road and return down through woodland to the eastern side of the Park and then make our way back to the starting point. The actual route will be subject to change depending on ground conditions. The walk starts with a gentle hill climb through the meadows and then is generally downhill or flat.

The Pavilion is a great spot for a post-walk picnic. The walk will be cancelled if steady rain is forecast. We’ll go ahead if it is just showers. The walking surface is generally good with a mix of grass and trail surfaces. Generally dry, but if it has been wet then there are a few damp spots.

There is ample parking and the park bathrooms will be open.
