Flat Rock Wildlife Sanctuary, Massachusetts, United States
4.5 (7 reviews) Spent 2-3 hours Ranking #10 in Fitchburg Nature & Wildlife Areas • Hiking Trails
Beautiful old growth forest in the middle of the city
Actually, don't come to visit this place! It is a quiet spot, loved by those that know about it. Lot's of wildlife, so if you plan to hike, make sure you take out everything you take in, in other words, this space is pristine, and it deserves to stay that way! Deer, fox, owls, woodpeckers, a rare bear. It's all beautiful.

Great place to get away from the city
A great place to walk, hike and get in tune with nature. Not a lot of other people go because it involves exercise so it is nice and quiet. Also, CLEAN but it is an Audubon site.

Awesome Hike
My fiancé and I just went there a few hours ago, it was clean quiet and the trails were marked. Different trails have different color markings we took a picture of the map at the start of our hike just in case and I suggest other people do it too since we did have to use it a few times. Some of the markings fell off the trees and it's helpful to have another reference. Our hike was cut short though with the fear of encountering a bear since we did see a pile of bear droppings on the trail we were on and also saw some paw prints but if your comfortable with wild animals go ahead and go deeper!! Overall a great experience!
