Trail Description
The Fisherville Brook Wildlife Refuge features 5 different trails (blue, orange, yellow, white, red) which range in distance. Following the blue or orange trail will lead to Upper Pond and the small waterfall located on its far side. The pond provides some great views from different points on the trail. There is a large parking lot located off of Pardon Joslin Road where you can find the trail heads for the blue/orange and red trails. The trail leads through thick forests, along side ponds and brooks, and at some points opens to large meadows. The old stone walls and cart paths date back many years and line the well-blazed trails.
