Wells State Park

Lover of good old fashion outdoor adventures? You will certainly find plenty at the 1,400-acre woodland area that makes up Wells State Park. The main go to’s here are camping and hiking, with plenty of forested havens to pitch your tent. Walker Pond is a scenic beauty that must be checked out if you crash here—you can enjoy tranquil fishing, peaceful pond wading, or secluded canoeing along the calm waters. Summer evenings are the perfect time to gather the whole crew around a campfire and enjoy the natural beauty that central Massachusetts has to offer. All you avid hikers will love the more than 10 miles of trails that criss cross throughout the park. Make sure you include the route leading to the scenic outlook at Carpenter Rocks on your list for some spectacular views to round out the trip.
