The North Smithfield Land Trust will offer a guided walk of the Booth Pond Conservation Area. The conservation area totals 130 acres and includes the pond, surrounding wetlands and upland forest.
The first half of the walk to see the pond is of moderate difficulty, and for those not interested in continuing further, we will return to the trailhead. The second half of the walk has some sections of challenging uphill/downhill terrain and a walking stick may be helpful. There is a scenic overview of the surrounding area at a lookout point at the higher elevation.
Please wear comfortable hiking shoes and bring bug spray and water. The event is free and suitable for all ages!
No registration necessary. Rain or shine.
Meeting Place/Directions: Trailhead is located within the Dowling Village Shopping Center. Park near the ALDI store, and walk down toward The Club apartment complex (2 Booth Pond Way). Green trailhead sign will be on your right.
