Friends of the Fells

Join us for a nice rugged ramble over a wide variety of Fells terrain!

Flynn Rink Parking Lot

Difficulty: Moderate/DifficultAppropriate for: Avid and experienced hikersLeader: Hobbit (Al Walker)About Hobbit: Hobbit is a tech geek and enthusiastic explorer of Boston-area parks, primarily North Shore but with occasional jaunts farther afield including the Whites. He is a member of Trustees, Mass Audubon, and several local Friends groups. His "home group" is the Friends of Harold Parker, and he can often be found leading their weekly Wednesday morning outings (plug!). His greatest enjoyment comes from the ever-changing "symphony of textures" underfoot across the four seasons, as well as contributing data to Open Streetmap and generally helping care for our precious outdoor resources.About the hike: Join us for a nice rugged ramble over a wide variety of Fells terrain! This hike is 7 - 8 miles with over 1,500 feet of elevation change, so be prepared for some exertion over 3 - 4 hours. We will start from the Flynn Rink, but we will spend most of the time in the main western part of the Fells, jumping semi-randomly on and off the Skyline Trail and visiting several interesting features in the park, including the Quarry, the Stone Spiral, Panther Cave, Pickerel Rock, and more. Bring your usual water, bug repellent, and something for a lunch stop.Steady rain cancels.Contact: friends@fells.org with questionsDogs: While we love experiencing the outdoors with our dogs, this program is not suitable for dogs.
