Some of the prettiest scenery can be found on loop trails in the state. For easy, beautiful hikes, Rock House Reservation is a great pick. When looking for a day out in nature, consider a beautiful hiking trail like this one.
Welcome to the Rock House Reservation Trail, a great spot out by West Brookfield that is a great hike for beginners. Loop trails are always a good choice, especially when you want to save time.
The whole trail loop runs about 2.1 miles and doesn't have too much elevation change. There are lots of rocks to hop and climb on, and the trail is usually neatly kept.
The main attraction on this beautiful trail is the massive rock standing tall at Carter Pond, a centerpiece on the water. When the conditions are right for reflections, this scene really shows its beauty.
This beautiful trip around Rock House Reservation has all sorts of pretty surprises up its sleeve. Visit the rock house, climb over the hills and rocks, and enjoy the final view of this stunning rock centerpiece. Sitting here is like enjoying your own little slice of paradise for a while.
Even when the weather isn't ideal, the rock and surrounding wall of trees paint a pretty picture in the snow, the clouds, or the rain. As long as you're equipped for the weather, this hike is recommended for use between March and November.
Dogs are allowed on the trail, but only leashed. Make sure to take everything back with you that you bring out, to keep the ecosystem clean and natural.
