Why to visit:
Cow Tent Hill is a delicious bite-size bit of nature. I had not done much research before coming here while out on errands. I only knew that the trail entrance was conveniently located on Route 3A.
During your visit you can expect the following:
- giant tall trees lining the .3 mile path
- a unique view of the marsh complete with a bench to enjoy a snack
- parking lot for about 5 cars
The trail at the Wildlands Trust site is not very long (.3 mile) but about half of it is very steep. I visited on the day after a light snow and was fine. I can imagine that it is significantly more slippery after a good rain storm. The trails are very well maintained and loved. Although during our visit, there was a big tree (18 inch diameter) that had fallen across the easier portion of the path.
