Running

Salt Pond is a non-profit privately administered corporation and 35-acre bird sanctuary, located close to the Falmouth coast. This wildlife area has nature trails and a bike path, and is mostly flat, offering views of the pond and the coast. A very enjoyable place to run while observing the different species of birds, such as swans, geese, ducks, gulls, herons, and ospreys.
