Pelloni Preserve Self-Guided Hike Map
Two wooded, hilly tracts comprise the Pelloni Preserve. The northern tract is owned by the Hopkinton Land Trust and its eastern spur reaches to the Tomaquag Brook adjacent to the site of Hopkinton’s first village. A 25 foot granite cliff complete with small caves, separates a perched wetlands from the upland forest. A man-made drainage channel at the bottom of the cliff is spanned by a traditional stone slab bridge. The second tract consists of a trail easement; part of the greater Tomaquag Trail north-south system and combined; the tracts add 1.1 miles to Tomaquag Trail. Note: As of Fall 2013, trails are rudimentary. Trails are flagged but final improvements such as widening, signs, and permanent blazing are not yet completed.

Diamond Hill Swamp Self-Guided Hike Map
This property is located along the Hopkinton Land Trust north-south Tomaquag Valley Greenway. Hikers currently connect to the Grills Wildlife Sanctuary to the south and Pelloni Preserve to the north via the road system. The Tomaquag Brook wooded flood plain is the dominant property feature with mixed hardwood uplands along Tomaquag Trail.
This is a rudimentary blazed trail without final clearing, signs or all-season stream crossings. Tomaquag Brook from Old Swim Hole south to the Pawcatuck River was canoed and fished when the entire area was cleared and farmed. The brook was well known as an excellent native trout fishery. The adjacent campground is collaborating with HLT to develop and maintain the trail system for public use. Please respect the boundary with this private campground. Note: As of Fall 2013, trails are rudimentary. Trails are flagged but final improvements such as widening, signs, and permanent blazing are not yet completed.

Hoxsie Preserve at Conochet Preserves Self-Guided Hike Map
The Rte 3 Main St Trailhead serves both Hopkinton Land Trust and TNC Canonchet Preserves properties. Most trails are in the upland woods with good winter views to the wooded swamp that follows Canonchet Brook South Fork. A dam and mill operated where Canonchet Trail crosses the South Fork via a stone bridge in the west. This western area is rugged with boulder upon boulder, glacial erratics and edge outcrops.
Walking past the stone walls, house and barn foundations, the old mill and extensive stone works at every turn along CanonchetTrail links you back centuries to those who came before. Canonchet Trail continues west and north to Stubtown Road, crossing other HLT and TNC Canonchet Preserves properties.
