Lovely multi-colored boardwalk winds through the woods and heath fields. The heath blooms a gorgeous purple in the spring. But keep in mind since this is a bog, it can get a little hot and humid in the summer.

Peaceful and very pretty heath trail (with a partial boardwalk), hidden gem in many ways.

The 1,218-acre preserve features a 2.1 mile self-guided loop trail through the heath’s varied peatland ecosystem. The terrain is relatively level and easy; beginning as a woodland trail and continuing to a half-mile-long boardwalk traversing the delicate heath. In the spring, the heathland plants bloom, spreading a carpet of lavender, pink and white across the heath. Open daily, sunrise to sunset.

This Nature Conservancy preserve encompasses more than 1,200 acres of land, and the trail is 1.8 miles there and back. No dogs are allowed. The heath is an amazing place to visit. The palette of the landscape and the bog plants are beautiful, the place has an enchanted feel. The multicolored boardwalk makes walking comfortable, dry and very fun. Directions: Drive northwest on the Buxton Road (Rt. 112) for 1.7 miles after passing over the Maine Turnpike. A parking area, marked by a TNC sign, on the right side of the road may be missed as it sits behind a border of trees. Look for a small Nature Conservancy sign at the entrance to the parking lot.
