The variable weather pattern we are experiencing is keeping our walks out of the woods for a few weeks. Last week’s Quarry Road walk went well – the dirt road was solid and the sun came out. With no fear for traffic, it was an easy time for sharing and having a few laughs.
We are going to stay on a very safe, low traffic road again this week. We will walk Shaker Road through the Sabbathday Lake Shaker Village (707 Shaker Road). Let’s meet on the dead end section of Shaker Road (old Route 26) near the bog at the top of Outlet Road at the intersection with Route 26 in New Gloucester. There is plenty of parking and from there we will proceed up the road that dissects the Shaker Village. The walk will have some elevation and down hill and will provide about a two-mile walk.
Good walking shoes and clothes for the weather will work for this week.
Stay safe and active,
Anne Maurice
