Hiking
Nestled along Wenham Lake, J.C. Phillips Nature Preserve spans 85 acres of forest, winding trails, and wetlands and is home to abundant wildlife. The 2.5-mile loop takes you through towering pines, scenic overlooks, and the remains of a historic estate. It's a fantastic spot for birdwatching, where you'll likely see bluejays, finches, woodpeckers, and bald eagles soaring high above the trees. Keep your eye out for wildflowers in the spring, and be aware of poison oak, which is common in this area. This beautiful spot is perfect for a quiet, peaceful hike any time of year.
