We invite you to join us for a hike around Stevens Swamp and a visit to the “Indian Cave”.
When: Third Sunday of the month: July 19 at 1 p.m.
Where to meet: At the intersection of Bass and Northfield Roads, proceed on Bass Road about 1.1 miles. At the tee stop, go right onto Flagg Road. In approximately 0.1 miles, bear left at the intersection. Proceed about 0.3 miles and park at the pond.
The Hike: Late last fall, we scheduled a similar hike but due to cold and biting winds, several folks in our large group dropped out early. Assuming no wintry weather this time, we are going to try this again!
Starting at the eastern end of the pond, we will proceed clockwise, take a short spur on the south side of the pond for a long range view, and then hike to the “Indian Cave”. From there, there are two ways back; we will decide as a group on which trail to take to finish the hike. This hike is not more than 2.6 miles and has an approximate change in elevation of not more than 190 feet. Bring hiking poles if you have them, bug spray, and a water bottle.
We will have maps and a trail description available.
The all volunteer Warwick Trails Group maintains some of Warwick’s town owned trails, hikes and maps existing trails, plans and creates new ones, and occasionally leads hikes around Warwick.
