Allens Pond Wildlife Sanctuary will host a New Year’s Day beach walk on January 1 from 2 p.m. – 4 p.m.

The walk will be led by volunteer naturalist Doug Hlousek, and will take hikers through the sanctuary’s Beach Loop Trail, covering a wide array of natural habitats, from winter meadow to the sanctuary’s rocky coastline and sandy beaches.

The program is free to attend and is open to all. Those attending are asked to dress for an outdoor winter hike.

Registration is required. To register or for more information, visit massaudubon.org or call (508) 636-2437. Allens Pond Wildlife Sanctuary is located at 1280 Horseneck Road.
