It offers sweeping water-views, paved bike trails and even some wooded trails. After the standard adventure, everyone is welcome to continue the fun in Downtown Warren for a Lite Adventure. Expect about 4-5 miles of hiking on our standard adventure! Lite Adventurers should expect about 2-3 miles.

Lite Adventure: Fighting Rock Corner
2019-03-03 10:15 - 11:15 | Fighting Rock Corner, 41.735149, -71.090127
This session: Fighting Rock Corner
When Adventure Guide Tim (aka Tinkle Tim, aka Lewis) first moved to Southcoast Massachusetts, this state forest was an amazing discovery. Boasting miles of trails and fire roads; you could easily spend days exploring all of its nooks and crannies! Being an outsider, Tim was unaware of Freetown Forest’s mystical legends, and even now, Adventure Club has come up short in our endless pursuit of the elusive Pukwudgie!
Fighting Rock Corner has often been one of Tinkle’s primary launching points for his own adventures–and he is excited to share it with OHAC! Let us take you on an exciting Adventure!
“Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.”

Lite Adventure: Haskell Swamp Wildlife Management Area
2019-03-02 10:15 - 11:15 | Haskell Swamp, 41.710773, -70.838491
Directions are tricky for this! If you are coming off of 195, head NORTH on North Street at the Mattapoisett Exit 19B. The small wooded lot will be on the RIGHT at ABOUT the drop pin location. There is a sign.
This session:
Haskell Swamp Wildlife Management Area
As you can tell from the directions, this is a lesser known patch of swampy awesomeness! However, per Tinkle’s M.O., he spotted a sign in his travels, and wondered…”What is THIS all about??” There are some nice logging roads, and certainly some adventurous trekking, especially if you are looking to avoid getting TOO wet out there. Be sure to bring thick socks, waterproof boots, BLAZE ORANGE (this is a Wildlife Management Area after all) and your Exploring Spirit! Let’s go make some trails!

This Session: Quanapoag Road/ Pine Tree Trail
When Adventure Guide Tim (aka Tinkle Tim, aka Lewis) first moved to Southcoast Massachusetts, the Freetown Fall-River State forest and all of its subsidiaries was an amazing discovery. Boasting miles of trails and fire roads; you could easily spend days exploring all of its nooks and crannies! Being an outsider, Tim was unaware of Freetown Forest’s mystical legends, and even now, Adventure Club has come up short in our endless pursuit of the elusive Pukwudgie!
Here is yet another launching point that has often been one of Tinkle’s favorites when heading out for one of his own adventures–and he is excited to share it with OHAC! Let us take you on an exciting Adventure!

Fairhaven Bike Path - Urban Lite Adventure
2019-02-24 10:15 - 11:15 | Fairhaven Bike Path – Cushman Park, 41.63846, -70.90518, Fairhaven, MA, United States
This session:
Fairhaven Bike Path and Center Village
Every once and awhile it is good for OHAC to come out of the wilderness and touch base with the rest of civilization. It allows us to restock, grab some trail candy (and if the stars align) force Tinkle and Columbus to take a shower now and again! But don’t let the Urban Hike fool you–there is still plenty of Adventuring to take place! The Fairhaven Bike Path and Center Village is a popular destination for two-legged, four-legged and any smattering of wheels alike–all of which pose a whole different Adventuring experience for our OutHounds and OutHumans. Come join OHAC and experience your everyday world thru Adventue Eyes! Expect about 4-5 miles of hiking on our standard adventure! Lite Adventurers should expect about 2-3 miles.

Turner Reservoir-Lite Adventure
2019-02-23 10:15 - 11:15 | Turner Reservoir, 400 Pleasant St, Rumford, RI 02916, Rumford, RI, United States
Tinkle is going to be honest here: as a kid driving from Connecticut, over the Thames and thru Rhode Island to Nana’s house in Swansea he went–he didn’t think much of Seekonk outside of its strip malls and extensive shopping scene of Route 6. It wasn’t until he moved himself to Swansea that he began to discover and really appreciate the beauty of the Southcoast–Seekonk included! Turner Reservoir was always a fan-favorite of the first OutHound, Moses and OHAC is excited to guide newcomers and frequent fliers alike to a beautiful reserve right in our own backyard! Parking will be actually be at a lot in Rumford, RI–and OHAC wouldn’t begrudge anyone who wants to seek out Seven Stars bakery pre or post hike!
Standard Adventure: 4-5 miles
Lite Adventure: 2-3
Terrain: Mostly flat, Some street-side walking
