There are so many different hikes at Nickerson State Park and so many around the many kettle ponds. I love this 3 mile hike around Cliff Pond. You are never very far from the water so the views and reflections are breathtaking.
It was a beautiful day to take a hike around Little Cliff Pond. It’s a wonderful hike of about 1.6 miles and with easy trail markings, you can just walk along and just enjoy being outside in nature.
I loved the wispy clouds at you look back over the pond. What do you think?
The winter of 2018 was quite harsh for Cape Cod… from eroding beaches and dunes to heavy winds and microbursts that downed many trees in the area. We lost 5 huge trees in our yard alone.
You can still see some of the the 200+ trees that were felled by the many nor’easters from January through March of 2018 as you hike along some of the trails in Nickerson State Park in Brewster.
The volunteers at Nickerson do an exceptional job keeping the trails clean and hikeable and bikeable all year long. Thank you at Nickerson State Park, it certainly is an enjoyable place to hike.
We watched this fisherman launch his kayak at Cliff Pond the other day. I thought, perhaps, it might be an interesting photograph. (Click on blog link for full photo.)
I waited until he was a ways from shore and took some photographs. I loved this one with the beautiful puffy clouds in the background.
If you want a place to sit and relax or read or visit or picnic, or just about anything , there is no shortage of benches here on Cape Cod. You just have to look around and find one that suits you. (Click on blog link for full photo.)
I found this bench on the beach at Flax Pond in Nickerson State Park in Brewster. It looks perfect for just about anything!You can hike around the pond until you find a bench or you can park your car fairly close and just walk there.
This one looks pretty inviting, don’t you think? Have you found the perfect bench to relax?
