Confirmed from Wildlands Trust - Brockton Audubon Preserve's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.
Nature preserve with kid-friendly hiking trails.
What runners say about Wildlands Trust - Brockton Audubon Preserve
“Definitely recommend it for a nice quick short beautiful walk for nature exploring or exercising.”
Nice place to walk and experience some beautiful natural environment. The parking spot is only good for about 3 cars, and if this is your first time there pay attention to your surroundings and don’t get lost 🙂😁
Beautiful place for a quite walk and contemplation. Parking for only 3 to 4 cars at main entrance. Could also park at church or Hancock school.
Very nice walk through the woods. Definitely worth taking the time to do
Great for local nature lovers. Signs, maps, and decently-maintained trails make it an enjoyable experience. Best enjoyed in spring or autumn; tall grass dominates some areas in the summer. Northern entrance: Pleasant St. entrance near Albany St. Southern entrance: Goldfinch Dr. Also, r o c k
