Trails at Attleboro Springs

Attleboro Springs has three miles of trails to explore, including a 0.5-mile All Persons Trail.

Trail Descriptions

Forest Loop Trail

Take the Forest Loop Trail, pass over a footbridge to cross a quiet stream, then walk through a red maple swamp bordered by fragrant sweet pepperbush, and on to a large rock outcropping of puddingstones. 

Reflection (All Persons) Trail

Along the universally accessible Reflection Trail, there is an observation platform overlooking the vernal pool. 

This 0.5-mile, fully accessible loop follows a wide, level crushed stone path, enhanced with bridges, boardwalks, and an observation deck.

There is a guide rope on the left, occasionally replaced by a handrail, for the entire length of the trail. There is also an audio tour available.

All narrated stops along the trail are marked by a round bead in the guide rope. Within reach of the bead, there will be a signpost with the stop name and number in print and Braille. A square bead in the rope indicates that there is a bench or other seating nearby.

On this trail, you can listen for Scarlet Tanagers and Ovenbirds, wood frogs and bull frogs; visit various wetland and woodland habitats; explore a puddingstone outcrop; and learn about the natural and cultural history of this special place.
