Bishop Cardinal/Wilson Wing Moose Pond Bog trails are in blue; Lord and Pine Hills trail system in green. (My map is a bit out of date. I will update as soon as I can! See land trust map below.)
The prettiest view of this walk is right at the start, with a glance up Horseshoe Pond. There is also a view over the Moose Pond Bog. Another nice thing about this Greater Lovell Land Trust preserve is it connects to the Lord Hill and Pine Hill trail systems, so you can gain some elevation (and go rock hounding at Lord Hill quarry).
Directions: From Route 5, take West Lovell Road a little under three miles to the turn off to Foxboro Road. Veer left onto Foxboro Road. Go a little over two miles to the intersection with Horseshoe Pond Road. Take a right, and park in the parking area at the head of the pond. The trail kiosk is a little ways back along Horseshoe Pond Road (you’ll have passed it driving in).
