The 0.4-mile Hales Pond Trail winds through wooded uplands, crossing rock walls indicative of 19th century farming and pasturing. The trail briefly follows an old woods road near the pond before crossing a stream via a footbridge. After the crossing, the 0.4-mile Fisher Loop travels along the beautiful shore of Hales Pond, and atop an impressive bedrock spine perched above a long narrow gully. The total hiking distance out, around the loop, and back again is 1.3 miles.
