Description

The Donnabeth Lippman Park offers easy walking on packed earth through wooded areas and around the edge of Chaffin Pond. The park's main trail loops around Chaffin Pond, but there are also trails on the east side of the pond that leave and connect back to the main loop. A trail extension on the north side of Chaffin Pond leads to Mud Ponds. These trails on the back side of the pond can be very wet during the spring season; however, these trails are an easy family hike that is in a great natural setting. Picnic tables and benches near the trailhead make this a great place for a picnic.

Great place to XC ski! My only comments are: It wasn’t groomed and the GPS on my iPhone didn’t show my location very accurately. It would be very hard to get lost though — the trails are clearly marked and you are going around the pond.
