Ooooh... Old cemeteries, spooky trees... Putting this on my hiking list!

#Negutaquet Conservation Area
North Berwick, York County

"The 100-acre Negutaquet Conservation Area has fields, a trail along the small, sparkling Negutaquet River, long stone walls, and an old family cemetery. A huge double oak tree excites some visitors! The Great Works Regional Land Trust protects this lovely spot, which offers several ways to explore diverse forests — some with very old trees — and meadows. Some of the trails, especially around the oval in the middle of the preserve, are particularly wide, level, and easy to walk. The rest of the trails also tend to be easy.

"Additionally, this preserve is connected to the 60-acre Maple Street Conservation Area and Town Forest via a long, sturdy bridge and 0.75-mile trail. (The connecting trail is not open to pets.)"
