Stunning Overlook On Pamet Trail In North Truro On Cape Cod

Pamet Trail in North Truro offers stunning views of the Atlantic Ocean. This is one that I just love! You can even take a long walk along the beach which goes for miles. When we were there, a little seal was swimming along the shore.

Pamet Trail has three different trail options: one to the breach of Ballston Beach, one to this ocean overlook and another one to the Bog House where cranberries were harvested years ago.

All three trails are gorgeous and great for the whole family!

 

It Was A Crisp Fall Day For a Hike At Wiley Park In Eastham On Cape Cod

We pulled out our heavier fall jackets and mittens for a  hike at Wiley Park in Eastham this morning. It was gorgeous with the fall colors starting to really turn.

This bridge separates the pond and the lake and is so pretty. There was a Swan swimming about in the pond this morning.

Have You ever been to Wiley Park? There are many different trails to hike.

The 2013 Breach Of Ballston Beach In North Truro On Cape Cod

One of the trails in the Pamet Trail Area  in North Truro on Cape Cod goes to a stunning overlook where, during a winter storm in 2013,  the Atlantic Ocean breached the huge sand dunes on Ballston Beach and sent surging waves up the Pamet River all the way to Route 6. It is unbelievable how the coastline changed during that winter storm.

You can see in this photograph how powerful the breach was that winter day as it broke through the dunes.

Pamet Trail is great hike and worth the effort to see these spectacular views. A hike for the whole family!

Yesterday was one of the most beautiful days that I have seen here on Cape Cod! The trails were busy with bikers and hikers and the beaches were busy with people enjoying the spectacular day!

Some kids were even in the water! Amazing for October 11th, huh?

It doesn’t get much better than this!

I’ve only seen 2 types of butterflies since we arrived here on Cape Cod a month ago…. a white one and this pretty yellow Clouded Sulphur butterfly.

It was the same species that I saw a lot of in Colorado.

So pretty, don’t you think?  Love his eye!
