Moose Mountain-Baum Conservation Area Trails

I am always looking for new places to go. I came across these trails from looking at the Hanover website. Here is a link. If you are looking for some beautiful landscapes including a really neat beaver pond, then this is a place to visit. If you are worried about getting lost in the woods, then this might not be the place to go. The trails are not marked and very rarely used. Until we got near the ledges, we were guessing where we were going. The beaver pond is amazing, there were many vernal pools, mountain fields, and ledges with great views towards the east. There is also an old farm foundation that we did not have time for. One day I would like to attempt the trek from Moose Mountain to Enfield along the Ridge Trail, but I have heard it is hard to follow-bring your GPS.

How to get there: From Rudsboro Road take Old Dana Road to Moose Mountain Road (Moose Mountain Lodge Road) and drive to the end. You will see a sign for where to park. The trail is across the road and the beaver pond is a 2 minute walk.
