Bone Hill Trail

The Bone Hill Trail at the Mass Audubon Long Pasture Wildlife Sanctuary in Barnstable, Massachusetts is an easy 0.4-mile loop trail that features meadow views.

Hike Description
This trail is very short and has several trailhead locations, but this hike begins along the Long Pasture Trail before heading east. The Bone Hill Trail will follow Bone Hill Road north for 100-feet before taking a right-hand turn. The trail will then split into a loop as it encompasses an open meadow. The trail loops around the meadow and heads back to the trailhead along the Long Pasture Trail.

Fees
As of May 2023, there's a $5/adult fee to walk on the property. Hikers can pay at self-pay kiosks at other trailheads or they can pay inside at the Discovery Center.

Parking
Hikers will find a large parking lot at the coordinates provided along Bone Hill Road. The lot is small, but large enough to accommodate a half-dozen vehicles max.

Pets
Dogs are not allowed on trails here.

Water Source
If the Discovery Center is open, hikers can refill their water bottles inside.
