The Leaping Well Nature Trail in South Hadley, Massachusetts is a 0.8-mile loop trail that offers an easy walk through a young forest.
The trail loops through a young forest and passes old farm fields with seasonal views of the Holyoke Range. Views of the Holyoke Range are more prominent during colder months with no leaves on the trees. There are several bridges and boardwalks due to intermittent streams and flooding; however, the trail is not fully accessible.
Parking
Parking is available at the coordinates provided, which are located off of Mosier Street across from the exit of MES Middle School in South Hadley.
Pets
Dogs are allowed if leashed and their waste must be carried out by the hiker.
MyHikes is an indie web platform aimed to make exploring public trails easier for everyone. The site has no investors and is owned and operated by one person, Dave Miller (Founder & Admin). As the Founder, main contributor, and doer-of-all-things for MyHikes, I share my trips with over-detailed write-ups for fun on a volunteer basis and I believe that public trail information should be available to everyone.
It takes a lot of time 🕦, money 💰, and effort (including espresso shots ☕) to run MyHikes, including hiking , mapping , writing , and publishing new trails with high-quality content... along with building new features, moderating, site maintainance, and app development for iOS and Android . I simply ask that if you find MyHikes' trail guides helpful to please consider becoming a Supporter to help keep the site, iOS, and Android apps available to everyone.
Supporters unlock website and in-app perks with a one-time payment of $25 (you renew) 😎👍. Or you can simply make a Donation of your choice without a MyHikes user account. Otherwise, telling your friends about MyHikes is the next-best thing - both quick and free 🎉
Thanks for visiting MyHikes and have a great hike!️
