    Rewarding woodland
    Farandnear Reservation is maintained by the Trustees of Reservations. There is ample parking and clean restrooms. The reception area includes attractive gardens. The trails are well maintained and easy. Most of the trails are through woodlands, but there are several small ponds to add interest. The site is very quiet. No admission charge. Insect repellent is recommended. Overall a very rewarding property. Definitely worth a detour.

    Remember to look up--great trees.
    My first time though very close by. Went before spring sunset and it was lovely. Very large number of interesting trees and plants to observe. Nice and spread out with great directions. Will definatly be back. Seemed well taken care of!!
