Indian Head River Fish Ladder

Pembroke

Easy Dog friendly Parking available Scenic views Beach

Located in Pembroke, Indian Head River Fish Ladderalong scenic waterways. This trail system is perfect for fishing. This large concrete structure helps migratory fish like herring and shad scale an obsolete mill dam on their way upstream to spawn each spring, though unfortunately it is not a very effective one -- large numbers of fish are still regularly seen stuck downstream, unable to make it over. Visitors particularly enjoy this destination during spring wildflowers season. Also explore Camp Wing Conservation Area and Misty Meadows Conservation Area, other trails in Pembroke. Try Camp Wing Conservation Area for a similar trail experience featuring river.
