Dunn's Depot Trail
Description
Dunn’s Depot Trail is a 1.3-mile lollipop loop trail managed by the Royal River Conservation Trust as part of a conservation easement on the 47-acre property owned by the Dunn’s Depot Homeowners Association. The flat, scenic trail meanders down the west bank of the Royal River through mature mixed hardwood floodplain forests. The path is narrow at times and includes occasional bog bridges.
Dunn's Depot Trail is a quiet, primitive alternative to (or extension of) the popular trails at Old Town House Park, across the road on the other side of Route 9.
