This is a nice little loop trail that leads to a pond. To get to this trail, you need to walk an easy mile and a half along the Presidential Rail Trail from Airport Road, then follow the railroad tracks to the trailhead. The views along the railroad tracks and the viewing platform by the Presidential Recreation Trail are outstanding. It’s the combined experience – getting to the trailhead AND the trail itself, that makes this jaunt special.
All of this is in the Silvio O. Conte National Fish and Wildlife Refuge, Pondicherry location. See my post on the refuge for photos of the Presidential Recreation Trail, viewing platform, and other refuge trails.
