The Noland Trail

A variety of wildlife to observe throughout the year - turtles, birds, deer. Plus, it's dog friendly and there's an excellent museum and coffee shop nearby.

Hiking Trail Review The Noland Trail - 5.5 Miles The trailhead is very easy to find and a large parking lot boot. The trail is very clean and well marked. This is a very scenic and peaceful trail. Lots of people in certain areas and quiet in others. Gorgeous views throughout. Lots of bridges which are labeled which I found humorous. All-in-all a great trail.

The Nolan Trail is a beautiful 5 mile loop with moderate foot traffic but still offers a peaceful escape. We enjoyed the scenic outlooks and spotted deer, birds, and turtles. It’s a great option for families with kids who can walk the full loop. We found painted rocks hidden along the path, which added a fun and creative element.

Very nice 5 mi loop on a gentle undulating trail, primarily around water. Trail includes around 13 Bridges and generally away from noise except for a few spots where it gets near the road but only for a short distance.

BLUF: 5 miles, very well marked, some hills, lots of free parking along the route, lots of benches to rest on and viewing points to admire. Great for hiking with dogs, but plan ahead. Leash required. No water stations. But there are couple park areas for off lead exercise. The Marine Museum is lovely, but not dog friendly. No access to public toilets. No drinking water areas along the trail. The museum does have a port-a-pot in the main parking lot for public use.
