Day Tripping

Natick is a great town but there is plenty to see just outside its borders. See scenes from this week's suggested day trip.

Where can you go for a quick day trip? We'll fill you in on some cool things to do with friends and family right in your back yard— places close by that you can get to in about an hour or less. This week's destination is Blue Hill Reservation in Milton, Ma. Just about 15 miles from Natick center, Blue Hills Reservation offers a number of hiking trails including a skyline trail with views of Boston's skyline. This is a pretty easy hike with only a few difficult points, you can spend a half an hour or a whole day exploring these trails. There is no charge to hike and it is a great way to spend some time outside.
