Large wilderness conservation area composed of many parcels principally managed by the Manchester Essex Conservation Trust (MECT).
Marked as mountain biking only on specific trails.
Similar to Dogtown in Gloucester in that it is very rocky and can be quite punishing (or technical if you want to be optimistic about it), and there is a lot to explore
However, signage is quite good and trails are very well marked for the most part.
