Blue Hills Reservation – Boston, Massachusetts

A few minutes drive takes you out of busy downtown Boston to another world at the Blue Hills Reservation. Blue Hills is an outdoor recreational oasis for city dwellers and provides easy and difficult hikes to the summit. Open vistas all around which on a crisp autumn day provides clear views of southern New England’s rolling hills and lowlands. More >...


Wachusett Mountain – Princeton, Massachusetts

The visitor center for the Wachusett Mountain Reservation area has trail guides to the summit. This is not a strenuous hike if taken slowly, and you can always walk the auto road, but you’d miss the forest walk and splash of fiery colors. At the summit you can see Boston and Mount Monadnock in New Hampshire - stunning! More >...


Quabbin Park and Reservoir - Belchertown, Massachusetts

Quabbin Reservoir was completed in the 1930s to provide drinking water to growing Boston. They flooded four towns, relocated graves, and there was a great debate. Today this massive body of water in central Massachusetts has returned the surrounding forest to its natural state, and is teeming with wildlife and over 20-miles of trails and paths open to the public. For fall foliage walking take the 3-mile round trip trek from Goodnough Dike to Pepper’s Mill Pond, and watch for the birds along the way. More >...


Mount Greylock – North Adams, Massachusetts

The highest point in Massachusetts - Mount Greylock - is located in one of its most scenic areas – The Berkshires. The area is a popular destination for the leaf-peepers in the fall. There are a number of hikes in the park, including the summit hike. The tower at the peak will provide memorable New England fall scenes for you, and plenty of Kodak moments. More >...
