The trails in Cumberland, Falmouth, and Windham are very well connected, either by footpath or snowmobile trail. In my map above, Rines Forest is in green.

Here’s a larger Google map of the trails in the area.

From Hadlock and Rines Forest, you can go and go and go. The 216-acre Rines Forest, protected by the Chebeague and Cumberland Land Trust, is a nice walk in the woods, with a particularly lovely spot by a stream. The trails are mostly wide and flat.

From the northeast corner of the forest, you can catch the Waterfall Trail, which takes you out of the forest and along fields to Blanchard Road.

Directions: There are two trailheads with parking off Range Road and a third parking area off Blanchard Road. The main parking area— with room for about 10 cars — is the second one on Range Road you’ll see if you’re going north.  The first one is a pullover on the road shoulder, with room for four or five cars. It’s is about 1.2 miles northwest of the intersection with Winn Road. The Blanchard Road lot has space for about eight cars.

Let me know if you have any trail updates or corrections!
