Take A Hike This Fall On Cape Cod

Glorious Natural Setting

Fall on Cape Cod.  It takes on a completely different atmosphere. When the summer crowds depart, the pace slows dramatically and Cape Cod turns from a bustling tourist center into a quaint relaxed collection of communities and glorious natural settings.


Autumn In New England

Nature walks become a wonderful private experience during the fall. This is a time when you and your family can truly enjoy the natural beauty and peace of the area’s setting – and may even encounter some fascinating wildlife.


Here are 5 of the best fall nature walks on Cape Cod.

  1. Wellfleet Bay Wildlife Sanctuary — Beautiful fall foliage and many types of wildlife abound on this thousand acre sanctuary.
  2. Green Briar Nature Center — The tree lined river reflecting the autumn foliage is a magical site. The smell of the jam from the Green Briar jam kitchen is fairly magical as well.
  3. Race Point — During the fall one can feel as if they are the only person in the world at Race Point. Enjoy the quiet solitude amongst the windswept dunes as you watch the waves gently lap the shore.
  4. The Cape Cod Museum of Natural History — A museum may seem like an odd place for a nature walk but the Cape Cod Museum of Natural History offers many trails on its grounds including boardwalks, salt marsh, woodland and beach trails.
  5. Great Island — From salt meadow to pine woods to sandy beach Great Island offers trail walkers abundant variety and a few challenging trails.
