Westerly Land Trust Thursday Hike at King/Benson Preserve Trail, North Kingstown

Description

Join us for our free, guided trail walks on Thursdays. We will visit various local conservation properties, including some of our Westerly Land Trust preserves. Walks are between 1 ½ to 3 hours and are open to all ages with our target group being agile seniors. Please keep in mind that these are wooded trails with stumps, roots and rocks so be sure to wear hiking boots or good walking shoes. All walks are at 10:00 AM unless otherwise noted. Our hikes leave promptly so please arrive on time.

There is a new trail on Nature Conservancy property in North Kingstown. Take Rte 1 North to Rte 138 East, get off first exit (Rte 1A), turn right off end ramp (same exit as for Rome Point). The parking is at a small lot just after six houses north of Casey Farm (Boston Neck Road). The walk is about 3.5 miles and goes down to the Narrow River near an old girl scout camp.
