McCarthy Trail

"Nice hike with small children. Curious about the "attractions".... We went and did the story loop that the Farmington library had set up and it was done very well!!"

"Entrance to this trail was very hard to find. Ended up finding it right off the main road. Parked on the side of the road to enter the trail."

"Very nice trail. Great for dog walking. We need more like this one"

"Great place to go on a short hike definately be prepared for ticks ans mosquitos ! But besides that its beautiful! Some cool attraction in there as well"

"You will park at the Farmington safety building. The beginning of the trail is near the road. There are a lot of little hiker signs along the walk to keep you on track. You can stop off at a couple "attraction" spots on your walk. The trail is a loop. I would probably estimate 1.3 or so miles. There are some really beautiful huge trees along the way and a pond/body of water as well. This would most definitely be a great place to bring young kids or if you had a minimal amount of time and wanted to squeeze in a quick "nature therapy" session- as it is not difficult but rather sweet and to the point. I am glad there is a nice little trail in Farmington now."
