Pegan Hill Reservation

Highlight • Forest

Pegan Hill Reservation is an area of woodland habitat that holds a rich history. It is the ancestral home of the Massachussett tribe also known as the Pegan Indians.

As well a deep history, the park offers a network of walking trails and great views across the surrounding area. Pegan Hill within the reserve stands at 119m (410ft) and is the highest point in Nentack. The park is only small, but it's a wonderful place to get out for a quick nature fix.

Waban Arch Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

This is a beautiful 9-arch, 145-year-old stone bridge that spans Waban Brook in Wesselley.

You'll be travelling over the bridge so you won't be able to catch a glimpse of its beauty from beneath, however you're afforded fantastic views down the waterway and of the surrounding forest, so I'm not sure what's better.
