The Bone Hill Trail at the Mass Audubon Long Pasture Wildlife Sanctuary in Barnstable, Massachusetts is an easy 0.4-mile loop trail that features meadow views.

Hike Description
This trail is very short and has several trailhead locations, but this hike begins along the Long Pasture Trail before heading east. The Bone Hill Trail will follow Bone Hill Road north for 100-feet before taking a right-hand turn. The trail will then split into a loop as it encompasses an open meadow. The trail loops around the meadow and heads back to the trailhead along the Long Pasture Trail.

Fees
As of May 2023, there's a $5/adult fee to walk on the property. Hikers can pay at self-pay kiosks at other trailheads or they can pay inside at the Discovery Center.

Parking
Hikers will find a large parking lot at the coordinates provided along Bone Hill Road. The lot is small, but large enough to accommodate a half-dozen vehicles max.

Pets
Dogs are not allowed on trails here.

Water Source
If the Discovery Center is open, hikers can refill their water bottles inside.

Before you leave...

MyHikes is an indie web platform aimed to make exploring public trails easier for everyone. The site has no investors and is owned and operated by one person, Dave Miller (Founder & Admin). As the Founder, main contributor, and doer-of-all-things for MyHikes, I share my trips with over-detailed write-ups for fun on a volunteer basis and I believe that public trail information should be available to everyone.

It takes a lot of time 🕦, money 💰, and effort (including espresso shots ☕) to run MyHikes, including hiking , mapping , writing , and publishing new trails with high-quality content... along with building new features, moderating, site maintainance, and app development for iOS and Android . I simply ask that if you find MyHikes' trail guides helpful to please consider becoming a Supporter to help keep the site, iOS, and Android apps available to everyone.

Supporters unlock website and in-app perks with a one-time payment of $25 (you renew) 😎👍. Or you can simply make a Donation of your choice without a MyHikes user account. Otherwise, telling your friends about MyHikes is the next-best thing - both quick and free 🎉

Thanks for visiting MyHikes and have a great hike!️
