Indian Brook Conservation Area + Manomet Recreation Area
Indian Brook Conservation Area is a sprawling 210-acre Plymouth property with about three-quarters of a mile of frontage along Indian Brook, encompassing the adjacent Manomet Recreation Area, home to four softball/Little League fields and a playground. A recently cleared walking trail runs from the playground, across Indian Brook Road, toward Shallow Pond -- it began life as a deer path rather than a planned route, so it is out-and-back rather than a loop, passing large old-growth pines and centuries-old rain-carved swales along the way. A trailhead kiosk with a trail map, installed in September 2021, sits near the playground in the recreation complex.
