Come hike across Ward Reservation with FONAT. The hike will last about 2 hours as we hike from North Andover’s Boston Hill to Andover’s Holt Hill! We’ll enjoy the panoramic views of the Boston skyline from unique cleared hilltops dotted with blue birds, and check out Ward’s famous solstice stones.

Note this hike will be strenuous, as we’ll be climbing two of the highest hills in Essex County.

The meeting place will be the Brightview retirement community on 114.  (The trailhead is on the far end of the parking lot.)

The event is free and family friendly.  Heavy rain cancels.
