Winter Walks in the Dunes at Castle Neck

December 7, 2025 Gordon Harris4 Comments
Trails in the dunes at Castle Neck in Ipswich

Crane Beach and all of Castle Neck are protected by the Trustees of Reservations. Pitch pine and scrub oak rise from the masses of marsh grass, sage green hudsonia and dune lichen lining the trails that wind through the dunes.
