This hike takes us from the foot of Rockport's Beech Hill, along and over old stonewalls, through a sugar bush, and along the edge of blueberry barrens to Beech Hill's top. There we will enjoy nearly 360 degree panorama views from the porch of a unique stone lodge, Beechnut, with its beautiful turf roof. Along the way Naturalist and Maine Guide Gary Roberts will identify the many plants and birds seen along the way. We will meet at the preserve's Rockville Road parking lot.
