Sanders Hill is an easy, gradual climb, and a good loop, but the views aren’t as nice as they are elsewhere in the Kennebec Highlands. Beaver Brook, which you walk along for some of the trail, is quite pretty, though. In addition to a well-blazed, well-maintained hiking trail, there are unimproved trails winding through this area and the rest of the Highlands that look, while a bit rough, like they could be fun to explore (and bike).
Directions: 1.3 miles south of Watson Pond Road’s junction with Route 27, there is a small parking area on the right.
