The trail begins at Oceanwood camp, which has a big parking lot you can park in. The camp also has trails that connect to the Ted Wells Memorial Trail. The camp requests that you notify it if you are using the trail. The trail head and kiosk are behind the camp’s main building and next to the swimming pool. For more information, go here.

Pass through the “Halfway Intersection” in Old Orchard Beach and continue on Temple Avenue toward Ocean Park. Cross the railroad tracks and turn right on Royal Street. Drive to the end where you’ll find parking in front of the Oceanwood Camp office. Walk to the right of camp’s main building and look for the swimming pool in back. The trail head kiosk is to the left of the pool at the edge of the woods. The camp requests that you notify them you are using the trail system.
