I’ve posted several blogs about The Atlantic White Cedar Swamp Trail in Wellfleet on Cape Cod, but I never included a map which is at the end of the blog.
It’s a wonderful hike for the entire family through the scruffy trees and pine forests and then over the Atlantic White Cedar Swamp on a boardwalk. It is as pretty in the winter as it is in the summer and a must do if you’re on Cape Cod!
Nauset Light, part of the National Seashore, was just spectacular with the blue sky and gorgeous clouds in the background. You can never get enough photographs of Nauset Light… each time you go, it looks so different.
One of the prettiest views of the waves at Coast Guard Beach, part of the National Seashore, is from the road on the way back from Nauset Light. You are up high and the perspective is breathtaking.
The waves, the sky, the clouds… everything was “picture perfect’ in this photograph. What a day!
The trail to Duck Harbor Beach on the ocean side of Wellfleet was just magnificent. We had never been there before. It’s a short walk over the dunes to the beach where the views of the ocean are breathtaking. You can also see Provincetown in the distance to the right.
Pamet Trail is one of our favorite hikes in the Truro area on Cape Cod. There is so much diversity from scrubby bushes and trees to pine forests to sand dunes overlooking the ocean to cranberry bogs. (There are additional photos and a map at the end of the blog.)
There is a bit of an elevation gain, as you can see by the map, which is pretty cool here on Cape Cod and the views throughout the entire hike are just amazing!
