The Quabbin Nature Walk Trail is a small 0.7 out-and-back hike that starts around the corner from parking at the Goodnough Dike at Quabbin Reservoir.
This is a very easy trail but over grown and not maintained during the summer.
Dogs are not allowed at Quabbin. Parking can be found Old Ware-Enfield Rd at the Goodnough Dike lot.
Lookout Point
As you follow the trail to the northern section of the loop, you'll find signs for a lookout point. To find it, follow the yellow blazes out to a small lookout that sits above the dike.
Parking
Parking can be found along Old Ware-Enfield Rd by the entrance to the Goodnough Dike Trail. Hikers must walk in on the Goodnough Dike Loop Trail for about 0.15 to 0.2-miles to reach this trailhead.
Pets
Dogs are not allowed on any trails at Quabbin.
