About this Location

The Thayer Brook Conservation Area "Easy Trail" is located at Wilbraham Community Gardens. There is a port-a-potty available at the community garden. Activities permitted include passive recreational activities including hiking, cross-country skiing snowshoeing, educational studies, and nature observation. Please be careful not to leave litter and not to deface the property. Please park in designated areas and be respectful of community gardeners and neighborhoods in the area.

From Main Street in Wilbraham, take Monson Road heading towards Monson, Massachusetts. Proceed over the mountain past Ridge Road on the left and down into the valley. Pass Hollow Road on the right and Glendale Road on the left. The entrance to the Community Gardens is just past Glendale on the left. There is a small sign at the entrance to the driveway that says "Community Garden." Make the turn and take your first right. Drive to the back of the Community Garden (where you see the woodline). There you will see the Thayer Brook Easy Trail sign and parking lot. Just up the road on the same side is the main Thayer Brook Trail parking lot from which you can also access the Easy Trail. The entrance is in the northwest corner of the lot.
