MAP: Best Sledding Spots North of Boston

MASSACHUSETTS — With a new layer of fresh powder, many of Eastern Massachusetts' youngest residents will dust off their tubes, saucers and tobogans for the first sledding of the year this week. Many will return to the same hills that they have for years, but some will seek out new terrain.

That's where we come in.

We asked readers across the Massachusetts Patch network where the best sledding spots in their hometowns were. Many are located in public parks and on public school grounds, while others may be found in places you'd least expect.

Below you will find a map of the top sledding spots located north of Boston. Please take note of your local laws to ensure that you are not trespassing on private property before you make your way to any of these sledding hot spots.

Was your favorite spot not included in our map? Is there another hot spot you know about? Fill out our form below and let us know where your favorite sledding spots are in the area. Additionally, if you have any photos to share of you and your family enjoying a fun day in the snow, send them to joe.lipovich@patch.com and we may include them in the map.
