Description
Enjoy a scenic 5.5-mile loop around Pine Acres Pond in Goodwin State Forest on this moderate hike that offers a rewarding blend of forest, water, and gently rolling terrain.
The trail winds through mixed hardwood forest, skirts quiet wetlands, and provides frequent views of the pond’s calm shoreline. Expect some gradual climbs, uneven footing, and longer stretches that make this hike a solid workout without being overwhelming. Wildlife sightings are common, especially birds and amphibians near the water.
This loop is ideal for hikers seeking a longer outing that combines natural beauty, solitude, and a steady, enjoyable challenge.
