Class I Pine Island Creek, MA

Because the majority of wildlife habitat at Parker River National Wildlife Refuge is salt marsh, one of the best ways to see and experience the refuge is by canoe or kayak. The water trail, which begins and ends at the boat launch, will aid in your exploration. The water trail is comprised of two segments: Orange Trail and Yellow Trail. Both segments are out-and-back. Please allow approximately 2-2.5 hours round trip for the Orange Trail. For the Yellow Trail, which covers a greater distance, allow 2.5-3 hours. Travel times are approximate and will vary with paddler ability and pace. (U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service)
