This swamp is the reason that there are boardwalks on the Red Maple Swamp Trail at Fort Hill. As you can see, there is plenty of swamp!
Such a fun hike for the whole family!

Pretty Day For A Hike At Fort Hill, On The Cape Cod National Seashore
It was a beautiful day for a hike at Fort Hill, one of our favorite places to hikes. I love to park in the lower parking lot and take the Red Maple Swamp Trail through the swamp on the boardwalk to Hemenway Landing. From there you can hike up to Carving Rock and along Nauset Marsh and up to the overlook.
It doesn’t get much prettier!
Beautiful Pamet Trails In Truro On Cape Cod
The Pamet Trails in Truro in Cape Cod are some of the prettiest around. They take you from the pine forests, to the scrubby shrubs, to the sand dunes. They are all clearly marked and kept up well.
Most of the trails are gravel or sand and and many are covered with pine needles. Soft, soft, soft…
And so beautiful.
The Trees At Fort Hill On Cape Cod Got Hammered!
The trees at Fort Hill, on the Cape Cod National Seashore, got hammered in the storm last week. Phil and I were taking a hike on Red Maple Swamp Trail on Saturday and we couldn’t believe how many downed trees we saw. It was mind-boggling to see that many trees down in such a short space. It must have been some sort of microburst.
Unbelievable!
