Hike Myles Standish State Forest Bentley Loop
This event happened in the past.Plymouth, MA 02360
Join the Appalachian Mountain Club for a 3.7-mile hike around the Bentley Loop. This moderately rolling trail is free of snow most of the winter, but if winter is particularly generous this year, you may want to bring a pair of snowshoes. The parking lot is plowed by the state, so parking will not be an issue.
