Long Point Marsh Trail

This section of the Long Point Marsh Trail at Cape Cod National Seashore is an easy 0.1-mile out-and-back walk that leads to a view of the Long Point Marshes.

Note that this very short section of the trail was only accessible during high tide in late March, 2023, hence the very short route. If planning to visit the Long Point Marshes, via this trail, check the tide chart before showing up; otherwise, you won't be able to walk the trail much further than 100-feet out-and-back. The entire length of the trail is approximately 0.4-miles out-and-back when not overtaken by the ocean.

Parking
Hikers will find very few parking options for this hike - according to the street signs, you cannot park on the south side of Moors Road, but the north side appears to be available for parking. Note that there's no real parking turnout on the north side of Moors Road, so park at your own risk.

Pets
Dogs are not allowed on this trail.
