Family Forest Hike at Prospect Hill Park

Join the Appalachian Mountain Club for a family hike at Prospect Hill Park! This historic park is home to many species of wildlife and native plants. We will follow the trail through the forest to the top of Prospect Hill, which at 435 ft. in elevation is one of the highest points in the Boston area and offers fantastic views of the city. Note that we are meeting at the South entrance on Prospect Hill Road.

Please wear warm layers and sturdy footwear for hiking uphill on a forested trail. Registration is strongly encouraged. To register, please email AMCOutdoorsRx@outdoors.org with the number of participants and ages of kids.

*December - March, programs may change in nature or cancel due to weather conditions. Check this event listing at OutdoorsRx.org for updates in the case of adverse weather.
