I wanted to continue my trail exploration, so I set my sights on the Powder House Hill Trails. The trail network comprises 188 acres and grants access to multiple users, such as hikers, bikers, responsible dog walkers and snowshoers. It’s also an outdoor getaway for many schooltime outings for local area children. Bonney Woods Corporation owns and manages the trail network and — fun fact — it is Maine’s oldest nonprofit organization. Pretty neat! Powder House Hill Trails consists of five “neighborhoods” that link together: Willow Springs, Horn Woods, Village Woods, Flint Woods and Bonney Woods. If you find yourself driving through Farmington one day, take the opportunity to go for a stroll through the forest that make up Powder House Hill Trails.
