Description
This trail features somewhat technical footing, but very little elevation change, so counts as a nice introductory hike. The white trail leads you out of the parking lot and joins up with the blue trail (and is part of the Cross Falmouth trail). There really isn't much to write home about; this is a very mellow trail that winds its way along to join up with red, and then the yellow Perimeter Trail. This will get you the circumference of the trail area, and there are several opportunities to pick berries in the summer. There are a few very small streams in Hadlock, which generally are not difficult crossings and have conveniently located rocks to step on in spring. The Green Trail and the Rines Trail and will take you out of Hadlock to Rines Forest. Nice, easy going, hikeable trails in Hadlock.
