Beaver Brook in Hollis welcomes guests to explore its beautiful grounds, dotted with blossoming gardens and scenic hiking trails, all year around.
The sprawling grounds boast forty miles of hiking trails, 30 of which are mapped. The environmental center even hosts fun challenges. You might want to see if you can hike all of the mapped trails, for example, from the first to the last day of winter.
Even if you don’t participate in one of the challenges, you’ll still have plenty to explore – and for free – on your own. In the winter, slip on your skis for a bit of cross-country skiing, or go snowshoeing.
Beaver Brook also encourages “Forest Bathing,” where you stroll through or sit in the woods to connect with nature. Relax in the seat at Shade Garden, or reflect quietly in the pollinator garden, for example.
Maple Hill Gardens are also part of Beaver Brook. The 13-themed gardens offer something for everyone – from meandering along a breathtaking wildflower trail to watching the kiddos play in the natural play area.
Admission to Beaver Brook is free. Keep an eye on the website and Facebook, too, for upcoming events and educational programs that are held throughout the year.
