World’s End

I’ve been living down the street from here and for some reason just discovered this gem! — Great walk; really nice views. It’s so big that even when it’s crowded you won’t feel like it is.
Highly recommend visiting this park; also great to have a picnic.

Lovely place but don’t count on it being open as advertised.
We arrived at 6:44 last night and the woman came out and told us they’d been very slow all day and now that there were two cars in the parking lot she was just going to close. The website says Worlds End is open until sunset — which was 7:37 yesterday.
So, we are paid members and I left work early looking forward to a short walk there, and we were disappointed.

Pretty nice park, and really great for dogs! There is a good amount of walking paths, as well as grassy areas, and great water views as this place is basically a peninsula, and you can even see the Boston skyline in the distance! Definitely a great place to go walking around or eat a picnic.
Only reason bringing this down one star is they should do a better job managing the parking area, obviously on nice days this place gets crowded but the workers did nothing to help keeping cars from going in even and cars getting out were struggling because there were too many idle cars in the free space to pull out.

Nice walk in a hidden spot outside of Boston. While there’s a $ 6 fee per person, it’s not too bad as I believe it completely supports the preservation of the land from development. The trails aren’t long at all but there is some incline so it’s an easy to moderate workout for some. You can definitely see Boston from the many high vantage points as well.
My only gripe was parking in which several people actually took spots from each other even though they were waiting. That means you mother of two from Milton.

So glad I found this place, my favorite place now in greater Boston. Felt like I was trespassing through something sacred — perhaps because it was secluded, 74 in March, a Wednesday, and I took the day off! Took a picture of the map in case but wandered off for hours through the rolling paths by the water, occasionally seeing couples on blankets. A much needed solo respite but highly recommend coming here with someone special at sunrise or sunset. Pack a light snack, a blanket, a book (Whitman or Tao Te Ching fitting!), and bring your hiking sneaks or lie barefoot! A spiritual refuge and place to recharge — breathtaking views.

Great scenery and great place to go, not far away from the city. Dogs are also welcomed. It takes 2 – 3 hrs to finish the trail. Entry is $ 6 per person.

If you aren’t a member of this park– please become one. The preservation of this park is just beautiful, and it’s so big that it offers visitors a wide variety of activities and areas to picnic with families.

Hidden place. Admission $ 6 pp, under 18 year is free I believe. Beautiful place for picnic, romantic walks with great view of Boston skyline. Kayak was even nicer, it was a bit choppy, and windy on kayak. We kayak in Hingham harbor and stop at the Bar to check out the beach and did a bit of walking in the worlds end. Its a beautiful bike ride on carriage trail if you don’t mind hills.

Absolutely gorgeous, somewhat secluded spot offering great water views of Boston and Hingham harbor. Think of it as a figure 8 with offshooting paths and easy water access where the two loops meet. I’ve seen dogs play fetch, some set up shop to fish, and others lay out to catch rays in this area. The paths are wonderfully marked on the map provided at the entrance and is complete with distance information. Pebbled paved paths make for easy walking and because of the somewhat hilly terrain, you don’t have to worry about sharing the path with cyclists. The grass is kept pretty tall in most areas though there are mowed patches that are prime for picnics/​laying out.
I docked a star because it costs $ 6 a person for entrance ($ 42 for an individual season pass and $ 62 for a family). Though the proceeds go to maintaining the park, it also deters us from visiting World’s End as frequently because there are way too many free options that offer comparable trails and water views (Wompatuck, Pond Meadow, Stodder’s Neck, etc)

What an amazingly beautiful place! The grounds are cleaned and you can easily go through the trails within 2 hours. Took my 2 dogs there and they loved it. Dogs have to be leashed on the trail, but we found a path down to a secluded part of the beach where we could let them play in the water off leashed. Well worth the $ 6/​person entrance fee.
Make sure to stop by Hingham Lobster Pound on your way! Great fresh lobster sandwiches and grilled scallops!

This is a hidden gem with lots of nature and wildlife to enjoy with amazing views of Nantasket, Boston, and Hingham Harbor. This park is a lot bigger than it seems. Bike, hike, nature walk or anchor your boat just outside. You’ll be glad you did. The money is worth it to help keep the park clean.

The world might as well end here, because this peninsula is the be all and end all for you walkers and dog walkers. A good place to launch your kayak, because it is Boston Harbor and there are no waves.
Not a lot of weird dogs to deal with, as at Stoddard’s Neck, but make sure your dog is safe from ticks.

Didn’t realized it costs money til we got there. $ 6 per adult. Children under 18 are free. Decided to check it out anyways.
It has several short trails — you can finish them all within a couple of hours (walking pace). It’s a nice park. You get to enjoy the surrounding water views of the Hingham harbor. At one point of the trail you get to see the Boston skyline on the left and Hingham water on the right (like on a mini island strip) It’s pretty cool.
Throughout the trails — they have one bench in certain spots for walkers to take a break to enjoy the surrounding and views.
Definitely recommend others to check it out.

Worlds End is breathtaking. One of those places that makes you so happy to live in New England. The hiking trails are way more expansive than they seem at first glance. Save yourself the $ 6 per person and simply buy an annual Trustees membership and you can access all the areas through the state!
Also notable, our child is a total stroller snob and the trails are great if you have a jogging stroller like a BOB.

Beautiful. It’s no hike, but a great walk (or run). Amazing views.
$ 6 entry per person, so go for a few hours to make it really worth it.

We love coming here and hiking. What a beautiful spot. Dog heaven for sure. There is a usage fee, so if you’re not a member make sure to have some cash on you. Rarely gets super crowded and there are numerous paths you can take so you don’t cross too many paths. Beautiful views of the harbor and boston skyline. Beware, this place has a TON of ticks in the summer so stay on the paths and closely check your pet after visiting.

This is a beautiful park with tree-​lined trails and pretty views of the sea. But World’s End? Really? Why be so dramatic? There are picnic tables and plenty of grass to spread a blanked out on for a picnic with a sweet view of Boston in the distance. You can walk around the whole park in a couple of hours. And you might spot a turkey or two.

If there’s a mild day in the winter, I have to take advantage of it and get outside, and today’s adventure took me to here. What a beautiful place. While I didn’t know there was a $ 6 entry fee, the rest of the day was amazing.
Besides well maintained paths, a clear map, and beautiful vistas, the woman who was working the booth was super nice. She not only gave me the map but also walked me through the terrain at the different places in the park, told me what to make sure not to miss and where I could find the restrooms.
I took the outside path around the whole place and was surprised by the mix of cliffs, rolling hills, tree lined paths, and interesting views of hull.
While I pretty much had the park to myself on a mild December day, I wonder what it would be like in the summer. I will definitely be back to see for myself.

1 star off for the fact that I have to pay $ 5 to take a walk.
They do keep the place immaculate. The only litter I found was a burned textbook in the middle of a path. The paths are wide with some hills and beautiful views of the Boston Skyline and Hull and Nantasket.
Great for a picnic. They also had a beach like area but I am not sure if swimming is allowed.
I bet it is AMAZING in the fall. I will be going back there then to take pics.

Autumn at World’s End:
–Walk the entire perimeter, both drumlins included because it’s cool enough now to do this without getting all sweaty.
–Have a picnic on a blanket in one of the meadows.
–Leaf peep.
–Roll up your jeans, take off your shoes and have a last wade of the season, splashing included.
–Bring a canoe or kayak and go for a paddle.

–Walk your dog and enjoy every stop he makes to sniff around, using those moments to really notice the trees, bushes, big sky, and water all around you.
–If you have a horse, bring it here and go for a ride.
–Find a bench to sit on. Meditate, think, read.
–Sit on an outcropping of smooth rocks high above the harbor or Weir River and be amazed by the views.
–Take some deep breaths of the fresh air.
–Welcome the new season in these beautiful surroundings.
Happy Autumn everyone. Enjoy the season wherever you are.
