The trail begins with the sound of water sharpening the air: a stream pushing its way through river-worn rock, palms brushing the path like hands urging you onward. You step off the lane and onto a rough, rigid footpath—roots, stones and the occasional slick clay—each stride taking you deeper into the island’s green spine. Concord Falls arrives first, a tiered curtain where swimmers thread into cool pools and sun-cut spray dots the air.
