Park at the turn-off on Meadowview Road to catch the trail to Forest Pond.
Forest Pond is a 45-acre body of water located in Canton, Oxford County, Maine (see The Maine Atlas and Gazetteer map 11 A4). To access this pond, drive north on Jewett Hill Road in Canton, and turn left on Meadowview Road. This road is paved but quickly turns into a well-maintained and drivable gravelly trail. Stay on it for 1.6 miles (passed the small cemetery) until you reach a turnoff on the right side where a few cars can be parked. The pond is a 10-minute walk up the trail from the parking area. Beware that this trail is NOT drivable, even with a 4X4. The surrounding area is also full of mosquitoes and other stinging and biting critters due to the presence of swamps around the parking area. The access point to the pond is unimproved, and can only accommodate muscle-powered craft.
