Coastal Mountains Land Trust will host a Wednesday Waldo Walk, September 10, from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. 

Join Coastal Mountains volunteer Bindy Pendleton as she guides hikers through a diversity of habitats on the Fernalds Neck peninsula. 

"Bindy’s deep family roots in mid-coast Maine, paired with her ecologist’s eye, allow her to weave together stories of local conservation coupled with spontaneous natural historical observations," said CMLT.   

This is a moderate 2 to 3.5 -mile loop which includes hemlock groves, glacial erratics, stands of mature pines, a plethora of mushroom species, and views of Megunticook lake. 

Meet at 10 a.m. at the Fernalds Neck trailhead, which is located at the end of Fernalds Neck Road in Lincolnville. Remember to please bring water, sunscreen, tick protection, and binoculars, if you would like. 

If you are interested in carpooling from Belfast, feel free to meet Pendleton in the Reny’s parking lot at 9:30 a.m. Please call Bindy at 207-323-0817 before Wednesday Sept. 10 for additional carpooling details.

Directions: From Lincolnville Center, take Rt. 52 south for 2 miles, then turn right onto Fernalds Neck road. Follow this road to its end, staying left at the fork.  From Camden, take Rt. 52/Mountain Street north for 5.8 miles, turning left onto Fernalds Neck Road.  Please drive slowly and use the parking lot, so there aren’t any vehicles parked along the road.
