Simple and easy wooded walk in Acushnet MA

Hamlin Crossing, as described by the Buzzard’s Bay Coalition, is a former orchard and farm offering easy walking trails. Start to finish, it took my Dad and myself about 25 minutes to complete the short walk. Consider boots in the spring as some spots will be muddy. There is a small parking lot just across the street from the trail head.

I had some exposure issues with the first battery of shots, I am thinking the shutter speed was set too high. I made some adjustments and exposure quality increased.


Whites Factory – You will find Whites Factory just a stones throw from Hamlin Crossing. As the Buzzards Bay Coalition describes, this factory was once a cotton and saw mill. Check out the semicircular stone arch, that design principle goes way way back in time.

As always, get outside! and thank you for reading.

Get outside to…

The Sawmill in Acushnet MA. This 19 acre site at Mill Pond is part of the Buzzards Bay Coalition, offers easy walking, and there is a nice parking lot adjacent to the trail head. I was looking to try out this BB Coalition site for a while and I am glad I did. Many of the Coalition walks are nestled in a very rural setting and can require some planning like a trail map and walking essentials. This site not far from New Bedford and just North of Main Street is quick to find, easy to walk, and ready to offer you a little peace of mind. Although you may want to wear boots and bring a snack, you will not need a GPS for this one, enjoy.
