50 HIKES MASSACHUSETTS 3E PA by John Brady
A completely updated new edition of a popular hiking guide to Massachusetts. Follow the footsteps of Mason Walton, the "hermit of Gloucester," who lived in a log cabin in Ravenswood Park from 1884-1917. Observe cormorants, herons, egrets, gallinules, and kingfishers on windswept Plum Island. Hike the Appalachian Trail to Mount Greylock, the highest peak in Massachusetts, or take a wildflower walk along deserted woods roads in Conway State Park. Massachusetts is home to this splendid diversity of terrain and more. This new, updated guide to over 200 miles of trails will lead you along the coastline, through marshes and woodlands, and to spectacular views and summits. There are treks for families with young children, moderately strenuous hikes for the more advanced, and rugged outings for experienced hikers. Each hike is illustrated with photographs and topographical maps and includes complete information on distance, hiking time, elevation, and trailhead access, as well as information on the natural and human history you will encounter along the way. An overview chart at the beginning of the book provides essential data and highlights of every hike. A year-round guide; includes beach walks and rugged peaks.
