We discovered trailhead for reservation where M-M crosses route 32. Coming from the north you will find that Tully Road and Monument roads that are dead ends. Can't get there from here is accurate Falls Road cannot be accessed from the North no matter what google tells you. |

Tully Trail and Metacomet-Monadnock Trail from Route 32
If we could have found Falls Road from the south the distance to the falls would have just been 3/10ths of a mile. But we found this the north end of the Tully Trail and followed it to the shelter and then down the wild brook. The distance is just a mile one way but is is steep, wet and slippery down to the shelter. Brook gorge and falls are well worth the visit. Falls is 45 feet high and the water was roaring today. Now I want to do the M-M from MA boarder to Monadnock in a point to point! |
