Beech Hill Park is quickly becoming a year round destination for lovers of the great outdoors. The Town has recently acquired a Trakor trail groomer for the park. The groomer, towed by a snowmobile, conditions various trails as well as the Park road for dog walking, and skiing. It can set tracks for nordic skiing as well as providing a safe and very solid snow surface, important for elderly walkers as well as novice skiers. The Park road is now closed to vehicular traffic and groomed, making it an excellent alternative for outdoor activity.
All trails are easily accessed from TCH exit 500 on Walker Road.
