Hike & Hops at Great Neck Conservation Area

  • Great Neck Conservation Area 34 Crooked River Road Wareham, MA, 02571 United States (map)

Explore the trails at Great Neck Conservation Area with Wildlands Trust hike leaders Skip Stuck and Jess Kennedy. We'll walk 3.5 miles through wooded paths that cross through several types of ecosystems, and there is one hill that only poses a slight challenge; in all a gentle hike. After the hike, around 1:00 PM, venture over to a local brewery to hang out together and drink some craft beer. *Food and drinks are not included in ticket cost.
