Hidden Valley Memorial Forest commemorates the life and work of internationally known botanist Arthur Cronquist (1919-1992). Cronquist, an expert on Asters who became best known for developing the Cronquist system of taxonomy for flowering plants, owned the property and used it as a research site.

The trail traverses a 67-acre inholding within the Wendell State Forest which was the research camp of the famous botanist, Arthur Cronquist, who observed that “time here refreshes my soul.” With the wealth of interesting wildflowers, deep forests, and inspiring waterfalls, you can see why. The Hidden Valley loop trail links into the Metacomet-Monadnock Trail, a much longer route stretching from Mount Monadnock in New Hampshire to southern Connecticut. In 2009, the M&M Trail was designated the New England National Scenic Trail.

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.
