| Trail Description |
Trails go thru lovely woods and open fields full of flowers from spring until late summer. Lots of beautiful views of the ocean, or of the town of Florence. Some are narrow and have water crossings, usally not deep. Trails can be very muddy and slick when it has been raining. Trails are all interlocking.
