Atlantic White Cedar Swamp Trail and
journey through a Tolkienesque woodland
forest for an outdoor adventure that promises

to an elevated boardwalk and winds through a
mystical swamp of Atlantic white cedars on a 1.2

returns to the starting location on the historic,
soft sand “Wireless Road” and ends with a

wireless communication.
Provincetown
Be ‘keeper of the light’ and spend a night or two in the
Keeper’s House at the historic Race Point Lighthouse
in Provincetown, surrounded by the serene beauty
of the Cape Cod National Seashore. Experience the
unique, remote life of a lighthouse keeper at this guest
house by the sea alongside fellow travelers, or book
the entire property for a memorable stay with family
and friends. The journey begins with a spectacular
two-mile ride across soft sand and rolling dunes;
along the way, a local resident Keeper will tell you
everything you want to know about the Light Station.
Breathtaking ocean views from every window make
it easy to spot dolphins, whales, and shore birds, and
capture a Cape Cod sunrise in all its glory.
