New Universally Accessible Sheffield Trail To Be Highlighted on Guided Walk
SHEFFIELD, Mass. — The Sheffield Land Trust will hold its annual Fall Property Walk on Sunday, Dec. 7 at 1 pm at its Ashley Falls Woods property off Rte 7A in Ashley Falls.
The guided walk will highlight the completion of the first phase of upgrading a section of trail to be universally accessible. Signage and other improvements will follow in subsequent phases.
Join guides Elia Delmolino and Neal Chamberlain to experience this new recreational opportunity.
Neal Chamberlain is the long-time Land Trust volunteer who guides the maintenance of the trails, and Elia DelMolino is from Greenagers, whose youth work crews have been busy this summer and fall in transforming 0.3 miles of the existing trail into an ADA-compliant accessible trail. The trail of compacted stone dust wanders through mowed meadows and forest, with a new bridge and boardwalk crossing the stream and wet areas.
The Land Trust thanked Greenagers, for making this trail accessible and the Berkshire Environmental Endowment, Eagle Fund, Fields Pond Foundation, and MassTrails for the grants that helped fund the work.
Before the walk, enjoy seasonal refreshments. Please wear good walking shoes and warm clothing.
This event is free, open to the public and family friendly.
