NSRWA Walking Club – Denham Pond in Hanover

NSRWA Walking Club – Denham Pond in Hanover
Saturday, April 11, 2026
10:00-11:30am

Join Walking Club Coordinator Steve French and Chris Jacobs as we explore Denham Pond in Hanover on Saturday, April 11 from 10:00-11:30. Chris Jacobs is the executive director of Pinewoods, a traditional dance and music camp in Plymouth. Prior to Pinewoods, Chris was the executive director of the South Shore Science Center in Norwell, where she collaborated with NSRWA on many activities. We are fortunate to have her as our host for this walk as we explore vernal pools and spring ephemerals.

The 40-acre Denham Pond property is one of Hanover’s conservation parcels, with 1.2 miles of trails through forest and field. In addition to the pond itself there are two vernal pools on the property that provide critical breeding habitats for wood frogs, spotted salamanders and fairy shrimp. The walk starts at Denham Pond and follows woodland paths with no significant elevation changes.

While we love dogs. NSRWA’s walks are dog-free in consideration for all participants. Please leave your furry loved ones at home.
