👍 A nice nature habitat right outside of Boston. The trails were easy to walk, especially if you have toddlers or babies. The trails were well marked and easy to follow, not much in the way of birds in mid February, but the kids and I saw three deer on the property. The goats were in the barn till spr...

👍👍 I went to World's End today, 7/25/23. Not only did I have a wonderful hike, but the woman who was doing check-ins at the gate was absolutely wonderful. I am so sorry I didn't get her name because she was great. Very engaging and knowledgeable. I hope that you can find out who it was, and...

Wrentham State Forest
Nature preserve
🫤 Easy access location. These trails are likely nice for off road vehicles, but not a great hiking location in my opinion. The trails have lots of loose rocks that make it challenging to hike. Could hear the highway noise the whole time. It is wonderful to have this forest to help block that noise...

👍👍 Such a great place for hiking. Paths around Bruges Pond are a bit rooty but beautiful. And at 7 am there are a few people but most of the walk you're on your own and can enjoy the birds, the frogs and the silence. Plenty of parking, and most hikers are wearing masks. Dogs welcome on leash, with two...
