Green’s Harbor Path and Kettle Hole Loop

Green's Harbor Path and Kettle Hole Loop combine for two miles of woodland trails in Duxbury, incorporating a genuine pre-Colonial path that once connected Marshfield and Duxbury settlers traveling to Sabbath services in Plymouth. Half a mile of the original route survives here, restored in part through an Eagle Scout project, with the trailhead behind First Parish Church on Tremont Street. The trails link directly into a much larger network -- Knapp Town Forest, Mass Audubon's North Hill Marsh Wildlife Sanctuary, the Waiting Hill Preserve, and Round Pond Conservation Area -- so it is easy to turn a short walk here into a much longer one.
