Small-mid sized parking area right off of MA 28/South Main St with room for probably a half dozen plus cars. This is just south of its jct with Gould Rd. Many more cars parked roadside. Seems to be a popular spot for a little evening stroll. |

The trail is easy to follow and even if it's not necessarily marked with trials names, there are signs at most or all jcts directing either to the pond, parking area, etc. I do not recall if it was marked or not but I think it was.
Second hike of the day after redlining section 4 of the BCT. This is a very pleasant and easy hike to Foster's Pond which was quite scenic especially in the evening as the sun was setting. Gaia had me at about 2.8mi, 75ft of gain, 56min. At the end of the pond, I made a short loop along a path (I forget if it was named) to the east of Zack's Way. |
