The Frank Knowles-Little River Reserve can be found on Potomska Road in South Dartmouth, MA. The parking lot and trailhead are 9/10ths of a mile north of the Lloyd Center entrance or 7/10ths of a mile south of the intersection of Potomska, Rock O’Dundee and Gaffney Roads. The Boardwalk Trail is the one you’ll want to take to check out the suspension bridge. For another great canopy walk in Massachusetts, take a look at this one in Western Mass.
