Maybe this hike on the Nauset Marsh Trail can be your own “First Day Hike of 2023.”

“Massachusetts is known for starting revolutions, so on Jan. 1, 1992, when 380 people gathered for the premier First Day Hike at the Blue Hills Reservation it is no surprise that this Massachusetts outdoor initiative swept the nation,” the agency said. “DCR celebrates over 30 years of this tradition in Massachusetts.  Today, all 50 states are offering First Day Hikes in state parks across the country!”

Nauset Marsh Trail is a gorgeous hike around the salt pond and Nauset Marsh and the through the beautiful woods back to the visitor’s center. It doesn’t get much prettier!
