"A moderate 8.5-mile outing that combines multiple trails into a figure-eight route around a park known for its ivy-covered 1910 stone mansion. Beyond the mansion, the park offers tennis, disc golf, fishing, and diverse hiking through habitats with water lilies, deer, rabbits, and otters; the trails also lead past ponds and a filming location used in the movie “Shutter Island.”" - Madeline Bilis Madeline Bilis Madeline Bilis is a writer, editor, and guidebook author based in New England.
