Named after the famed woods that are home to A. A. Milne’s Winnie-the-Pooh characters, the Hundred Acre Wood is the first hiking trail that Blue Hill Heritage Trust designed and constructed in the town of Brooklin. The trails travel across some very distinctive terrain, from rocky outcrops, to marsh, to woods.
The 1.7-mile outer loop takes visitors along a wooded path.
A 0.5-mile inner accessible loop has a surface of crushed gravel with a mostly consistent width of 6 feet, narrowing in one place to a width of 5 feet. This inner loop is mostly made of up gradual slopes, typically of 0-3%, with a maximum slope of 12% and a maximum cross-slope of 5%. See Trail Access Information & Considerations below for more information about this Accessible Adventure.
