Willowdale Hike - Ipswich - Sunday January 5th

SEE VERY END OF THIS EVENT DESCRIPTION FOR LOCATION DETAILS.

It's been a while but it's time to embrace winter and start up some events.

This trail does not have any significant elevation but as a ridge trail it has many ascents and descents.

The trail surface has roots and rocks so be prepared and don't expect smooth trail surfaces and to move at a more brisk pace. High top hiking boots are recommended.

Google Maps does not have a specific location for the south entry to Willowdale so DO NOT park at the Linebrook Road location. We will park at the Ipswich Road location which is 1.8 miles from the Route 1 and Ipswich Road intersection.

The parking lot is small and on the left just beyond the Greenbelt parking lot and also on the left. If the Willowdale lot is full you can park on the right side of the road just after the parking lot or, turn around and park in the Greenbelt parking lot.

Aside from travel time put aside 1-1/2 to 2 hours for the appr. 5 mile hike.

Note that the location provided is for Foote Brothers and beyond the Willowdale parking lot. It is provided to get you in that direction. As I indicate above, the Willowdale parking lot is 1.8 miles after the Route 1 and Ipswich Rod intersection.
