Geology and More at Whipple Hill

Whipple Hill Conservation Area features Lexington’s highest point, topping out at 374 feet above Boston Harbor. Whipple Hill is also home to fascinating remnants of the last glacier to cover the area some 10,000 years ago. The walk up and down the trails will include stopping at a vernal pool and observing typical New England woodland plants, some in bloom.

Meet at the Winchester Drive entrance, 196 Johnson Rd Winchester, MA 01890. Parking is available on Berkshire Drive off Winchester Drive, across the street from the entrance.

Heavy rain or lightning cancels.
