Luddam’s Ford Park / Hanover

Home / Town / Hanover / Luddam’s Ford Park / Hanover

Luddam's Ford Park is a trail located off Water Street in Hanover. It is connected to the Indian Head Trail. The combination of the two trail systems can be around 4 miles of hiking; however, if you stick with just Luddam's Ford Park you can have a very manageable hike.

The Luddam's Ford Park trails are centered around the pond. There are several trails that nest together but the two main trails are called out by Red and Green markers. In addition, there is a boat launch for kayaks and other non-motorized watercraft.

At the base of the pond is a dam that is a particularly enjoyable sight after significant rainfall. In addition to the dam, there is a herring run that is monitored by the North South River Watershed association.
