East Richardson Preserve is a 1.6-mile, scenic loop traillocated in Dracut, Massachusetts. It’s an easy nature walkthatpasses through well-maintained trails in the woods, with parts paralleling the golf course and housing developments but otherwise remaining very secluded. Key highlights include views of a beaver pond, frequent deer sightings, migratory waterfowl seasonally, and beaver tail slaps on the water in the evening. Hunting is prohibited in this area, making it a safe destination year-round. The preserve connects to Proprietors Way and via Brentwood to Tranquility Wayfor extended hiking opportunities.
