Nantucket Walkabout - Guided History Hikes will pick you up in an 11-passenger van in downtown Nantucket at 15 Washington St. across from the WAVE bus station and transport you out into the part of our island wilderness of your choosing.
Explore open space trails 1 to 5.5 miles roundtrip depending on the hike chosen. Along the way, learn how the Laurentide ice sheet blanketing the Northern Hemisphere as recently as 21,000 years ago formed Nantucket, what plants, animals, birds, insects, and humans found the island to their liking, and how the inhabitants adapted to living on a what is essentially a 30,000-acre sandbar that’s 112 feet over sea level 30 miles south of Cape Cod in the Atlantic Ocean.
Nantucket Walkabout shares Nantucket’s conservation efforts, and how this impacts the wide variety of habitats, ecosystems, wildlife, and plants. The tours delve into the human history of Nantucket including native Americans and also help hikers understand what it’s like to live on Nantucket today.

Nantucket Walkabout guides natural history hikes on conservation land owned by the Nantucket Islands Land Bank, the Linda Loring Nature Foundation, the Trustees of Reservations, and the Massachusetts Audubon Society.
Your guide will wait up to 10 minutes for any stragglers. But please call us if you’re going to be late.
A good pair of walking shoes or boots, sun lotion with SPF, bug spray (with DEET is great), camera, water, a snack, plus a light jacket if it looks like rain or you tend to get chilly. EXTRA: If you have them, you may also want to bring a backpack, walking stick, sunglasses, binoculars and compass.
