Description

The Hadlock trails are a growing hiking/biking network in the Hadlock Community Forest, an actively managed forest. The singletrack trail rolls through small hills and passes many productive ephemeral ponds. The access trail from the parking lot leads to a series of nested loops of different length. Older snowmobile trails criss-cross the forest but these are generally in poor shape for hiking or biking. The nested loops also provide access to the Cross-Falmouth Trail. Going north, this trail leads to the Cumberland town line where a snowmobile trail that is in excellent condition leads to Range Road. Going south, the Cross-Falmouth trail crosses a powerline corridor and runs through a very wet forest adjacent to the Falmouth Country Club before exiting at the Winn Road trailhead.

Trail Tips

Dispose of Waste Properly
Wash your dishes at least 200 feet away from water sources, use biodegradable soap sparingly, and scatter the dishwater.

Trailhead Information

The principal trailhead is located on Hadlock Road 1.7 miles north of its intersection of Mountain and Gray Roads. From the south, turn right on Hadlock Road. Near the end of Hadlock Road there is an entrance to the parking lot on the right.

A second trailhead is accessed via Winn Road about 100 yards west of the intersection of Winn and Field Roads. This trailhead is immediately across from the off-road parking for the Town Forest trails. The trailhead is hard to spot as the entrance is narrow and there is nothing but a very small sign pointing out its location. Parking is on the road-side.
