The Endean Trail was initially established many years ago, and then fell into disrepair. In 2007 an Eagle Scout re-established the trail and put up trail markers. The trail offers beautiful views of Plimpton Pond, the Neponset River and Bird Pond. The trail has been the site of 3 other sets of improvements by other Eagle Scouts since it was reestablished. Trail markers are orange.

Description
The South Street Trail is on town-owned property, as are most trails in town. The area is mostly pine forest and offers views of the Neponset River. The unique feature of the trail is its close proximity to the Neponset. Shertick Point is a lovely spot on the riverbank. From there, you can look north across the river and see Duffy Point in the Town Forest. The south section of trail follows an old fire road which makes it hard to get lost. The north section splits, but both paths reconnect under the power lines. Trail markers are YELLOW.
