Here you can make a one-mile loop — which is well marked — on old logging roads. The land is owned by the Wells Conservation Commission. I recommend you do the loop counter-clockwise, as the trail blazes and signs are clearer. About half-way through the loop, a well-used trail branches off to the right. It ends up on a long, straight path behind houses on Nottingham Drive.
The loop trail is easy and flat — very gentle walking.
Th trail is part of the Fenderson Commons, a 630-acre parcel that stretches between Route 109 and Horace Mills Road. You can also do a walk at the other end here.
Directions: Parking is along the side of Horace Mills Road, a little under a mile from Quarry Road.
