Hosmer Woods

West Main Street (Rte 2A), Orange, MA
(978) 952-6856

Two parcels - Hosmer Woods and Webb Forest - dominated by wonderful stands of white pine.

Description:

This area consists of two parcels donated by two different families, the 187-acre Hosmer Woods and the 49-acre Webb Forest. Low-quality hardwoods were taking over after a 1920s logging operation, but under NEFF’s active management, the forest today is dominated by wonderful stands of white pine. The haul roads through the parcels also serve as inviting trails for visitors.

Join us July 21st (this weekend) for "Birds and Wildlife in the Forest at Hosmer Woods"

Directions:

From Rte. 2, take Exit 15 and follow Rte. 122 into Orange center. Turn left (west) onto Rte. 2A and go 0.7 miles to trailhead on right.
