    Hiking

    Goose Cove Reservoir is an attractive freshwater pond and is one of the main sources of water for Gloucester. From this spot on the north end of Goose Cove Reservoir, on top of an earthen dam, you get great views across the clear water; these views are exceptionally nice in the fall when the changing leaves are reflected on the ponds surface. There is a great hiking loop around the entirety of the pond; it is a popular trail for locals and visitors alike. There are numerous trails off of the semi-paved loop leading into the Dogtown Woods.
