I love the Alltrails App for hiking whether it be here on Cape Cod or out in one of the national parks. There are so many different trails that are already on the app or you can make your own. It’s so easy. (Click on blog link for other photos.)
At first glance you can see the trail length, difficulty, elevation gain and average time. You can even preview the trail which takes you on the actual trail.
This was one trail that we made at Nickerson State Park in Brewster. AllTrails also has a feature that dings if you make a wrong turn.
Have you ever used the AllTrails App? It is so much fun to plan your own hike or use one of theirs.
I always love seeing this “tree foot” on the trail in Nickerson State Park in Brewster. It looks just like a big animal but you can only see its foot on the trail. It always brings a smile to my face. (Click on blog link for other photo.)
Have you ever seen this “tree foot” at Nickerson? Pretty cool, don’t you think?
Nickerson State Park in Brewster has some great hiking trails. Many of them are around or near the ponds, which makes the views amazing!
This particular day was cloudy and chilly but there was no wind and not a ripple on the water. I love this view of Cliff Pond. Have you ever hiked there?
Nickerson State Park is one of our favorite places to hike, especially off-season. Many of the hikes are in the woods so it’s more secluded than many other places that get a lot of wind. (Click on blog link for other photos.)
There are so many different hikes to take or you can invent your own hike depending on what you wish to see… ponds, woods, marshes, etc. It’s always beautiful, no matter when you go!
There is a beautiful new bench where a few of the trails intersect by Heartbreak Hill in Nickerson State Park in Brewster. It was built and installed by the New England Mountain Bike Association. (Click on blog link for other photo.)
Nickerson has many trails that are accessible to both hikers and mountain bikers, so don’t be surprised if you happen to see some along the way. Or sit for a minute and relax while you enjoy those wonderful trails.
