The Gate 5 Trail at Quabbin Reservoir in Belchertown, Massachusetts is an easy 1 mile out-and-back trail that leads down to the southwest shores of Quabbin.

The trailhead starts at the intersection of Old Enfield Rd and Earley St where you can find a small parking turnout next to the gate. Be sure not to park in front of the gate.

The trail heads downhill toward the water, but the hike back isn't difficult.
