The Jesup Path is an easy walk that people of all ages will enjoy, with the path beginning at the Sieur de Monts Spring area just across the wooden bridge by the Nature Center. The entire path is along flat ground, when the path reaches the intersection of the Hemlock Road (a pedestrian only road) the Jrsup path becomes a boardwalk, running through white birch rich forest which can be boggy at times, which is the reason for the boardwalk. Along the path are several wooden benches where you can rest and relax and take in the birds singing in nearby trees. Along your hike you might catch sight of a deer or one of the many different types of woodpeckers found throughout the park. The Jesup path exits the woods by a large marsh that is perfect for bird watching, and at the far end of the Marsh enters the woods again before ending at the One Way Section of the Park Loop Road. Directly across the roadway is the start of the Great Meadow Loop, from which you might spot deer, beaver and porcupine..
The Hemlock road today is used as a hiking path and is also an easy hike through woods and marsh.
At the intersection of the Hemlock Road and Jesup Path is the Homan's Trail head, which for the most part is a stone stairway up the side of Dorr Mountain.
