Distance: 1-2 Miles
Difficulty: Easy
Located on Shady Lane in Milford is a pretty little town forest. Mayflower Hill Town Forest has a couple different trailheads. The Shady Lane trailhead was the first one we came upon and there was a small parking we decided to explore the trail from there.
The forest and trails are small, only 1-2 miles, but so worth checking out. Check out the map to make sure you hit the lookout point. The trails are very easy to follow as they are well marked with white signs and arrows.
The loop we did from Shady Lane took us by a water tower and through a pretty little forest.
There was a lot of evidence of cellar holes and old quarries.
The best part of the hike was the view of the Wapack Range and Pack Monadnock. For such an easy hike, it was a beautiful view.
This is a fun hike for all ages and abilities or if you are looking for a quick hike with a nice view.
