    Start at parking lot near Greenhouse off Gougar, go up side path near trees. Follow Interpretive Trail until the first trail intersection, then turn right to go under stone arch. Do Outer Loop counter-clockwise until the second trail intersection (some gravel, some paved) and make a sharp left down the gravel hill. Take the next left to finish the loop and redo some of the Outer Loop. When you return to the paved/gravel intersection, take the second left (not the first left like the first time) to follow Bluff Trail in a clock-wise loop down to the road. Follow the road west toward the back of the park, but make the hairpin turn right up the hill. When you reach the paved/gravel intersection for the third time, stay left to follow the paved trail out to the Hadley Valley loop (across Rt. 6). Come back, and when you reach the paved/gravel intersection for a 4th time, go straight through the intersection to follow Valley Road (but this time stay straight and do not take the left turn you took the first time). You'll come out onto the road for a small portion (stay on the left of the road), but join the Interpretive Trail to follow it back to the greenhouse. Finish on the side trail back to the parking lot.

    About the Calorie Calculator

    Our Calorie Calculator estimates how many Calories you will burn using Metabolic Equivalent (MET) values from Compendium of Physical Activities. The Compendium idenitifes the relative energy cost of undertaking various activities compared with doing nothing. We then combine this with your weight and the estimated duration of the activity, taking into account the length of the route and the hills involved, to estimate the total Calories burned.

    When selecting an Activity setting, select the speed you would normally travel at on flat ground.

    Please remember, the estimated number of Calories is just a guide and the actual number of Calories burned may vary depending on other factors such as weather and terrain.
