Overview: This is a pretty level and leisurely hike. The area around the ponds seems a popular location for dogs. There is a lot of beaver activity as well. I am not sure that horses are allowed in the Bolton Parks location, however they are allowed in the State and Harvard properties. Many of the trails in these areas are wide and well suited to horses. There is a section prior to pt #7 that is wet and rocky, otherwise all trails are well marked and easy to navigate
