Pulpit Rock Conservation Area

We really enjoyed the hike here. The waterfall was dried up, unless there is another one we didn't come across. Some sections of the path are moderately difficult, but my 8 year old handled it well with a bit of assistance over big rocks. Scenery is beautiful and lots of interesting landmarks on the white path. Haven't tried the others yet. On the way back I let my 8 year old daughter lead the way by following the trail markers and she lead us back without a hitch, so I'd say the trails are very well marked. The pictures really don't capture how high up your are at the pulpit. Also if you bring your kids, have them be on the lookout for rocks small enough to pick up and carry. You'll know why when you find it, and your kids will be excited they have a rock to contribute.

Great area with a few different trails! Great for snowshoeing in the winter or if you have a pair of microspikes as the area can get icy with the snow. Beautiful views throughout the entire area. Parking is very limited on both sides, but I was able to get a spot during winter around 2 so just try to time it right based on weather. Dogs are able to explore the trails as well, but on a leash. Be mindful as some people had their dogs off leash.

Great hike. Lots of different trails/ difficulties to choose from. Exactly what you would expect of a New England hike: a bit of marsh, a lot of evergreens and granite. Biggest challenge is trying to get pictures to convey just how cathedral- like the ravine feels. Deep/tall, depending on your angle, but very memorable.

The trails here are really good and interesting. There's lots of little nooks and crannies to get lost in here. Definitely worth the visit also there's ample parking
