About Hawksnest State Park
Explore Hawksnest State Park in Harwich, Massachusetts, and discover the natural beauty surrounding Hawksnest Pond. Perfect for a quick outdoor escape, the park offers two main access points: the Hawksnest Pond Boat Launch and the Hawksnest Pond Swimming Hole. Whether you're looking to launch a small boat or enjoy a refreshing swim, Hawksnest Pond provides a peaceful setting. Please be aware that parking can be limited, particularly near the boat launch, due to a steep turnaround and pothole-filled service road.
The Hawksnest Pond Boat Launch trail is a short (0.2 miles) service road, while the Hawksnest Pond Swimming Hole trail is even shorter (0.1 miles) but includes a moderately steep section. Both trails are dog-friendly, so feel free to bring your leashed companions, remembering to clean up after them. Prepare for some rustic conditions and enjoy the easy access to the pond for a walk, a swim, or a peaceful moment by the water. Be sure to park responsibly along Spruce Road when accessing the swimming hole and be mindful of the steep off-shoot trail for quicker access to the pond.
