Map 27 - Hoch/Harris
Rating Comments: Two access points in Harvard, one on Still River Road, the other at the end of Harris Lane. This trail would be worthwhile just for its Harvard portion, which passes through hardwood forest (and the dying vestiges of red pine plantation). What makes this new trail great is its connection to the Bolton Loop Trail through Vaughn Hills, 187 acres of hills, hardwoods, streams, and distant views. That greatly elevates the Harvard portion's modest trails into an amazing connection to a fantastic trail complex. Miles and miles of trails are available through this link. Inconvenient parking drops the rating one star. While parking is possible on Still River Road at the town line, that is also a school bus turnaround, so should be avoided around school bus hours. There is a signed public right-of-way that passes over private land at the end of Harris Lane adding another access point to the trail system. Easy-Moderate
