Head of Tide Park on Cathance Road in Topsham is the first waterfront park in Topsham and is managed by the Brunswick-Topsham Land Trust. The park, partially funded by the Land for Maine’s Future program, has a covered picnic pavilion, a hand-carry boat launch onto the Cathance River, and more than five miles of trails for hiking, cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, and exploring. Enjoy the views of a 15-foot waterfall right at the park’s entrance. You can also learn about the history of the park through a sign at the main entrance. There is lots of parking and this is an easy drive from anywhere in the Midcoast. Come watch wildlife (especially Bald Eagles and Ospreys), enjoy lunch, hike, canoe, and more.
