Gilsland Farm Details
As a wide-open 1.7 mile loop located in Falmouth, the Maine Audubon's Gilsland Farm Trail is a popular spot for friends and family to gather and take in the sweeping views or watch for wildlife. Take note that there is little cover along much of this route and the wind can get chilly. Because of this, the best times to go are in the summer when the wildflowers are blooming in the marshes, or during the winter with snowshoes or cross country skis.
