Trail Map

Watuppa Reservation is home to several miles of wide, well-maintained trails that visitors of all ages can enjoy. Because many of the driving roads in the interior of the Bioreserve are rough and unmaintained, we recommend you approach the reservation from the south and use a map to guide your journey.

Corduroy Path

Looking for a little more adventure? Try the Corduroy Path, a swampy former farm road created by the farmer who once lived in the house that now serves as the reservation headquarters. Look out for notable sights such as King Philip’s Spring, a stone-lined stream that flows to North Watuppa Pond. The Corduroy Path links with many other trails that weave for miles through the reservation and lead you to other parts of the Bioreserve.

Blossom Road

From the parking area on Blossom Road, you can explore the Homestead Loop: an easy one-mile trail that will give first-time visitors and beginner hikers a nice introduction to the reservation. This path is particularly fun for families with kids because the trails are marked with animal symbols!

Tattapanum Trail

You’ll find another self-guided interpretive trail at the Tattapanum Trail, located on the northwest edge of North Watuppa Pond. (Access this trail by driving around the pond to Wilson Road, off Route 24.) This short loop trail circles through a spruce grove and offers views of the pond – known as a great place to spot bald eagles!
