Wompatuck State Park – Leavitt Street Entrance (Hingham)

This alternate entrance to the 3,500+ acre Wompatuck State Park, at the end of Leavitt Street in Hingham, offers access for both pedestrians and cyclists. There is a moderate hill early on the paved trail that could be tricky for some wheelchair and stroller users, but the terrain flattens out beyond that. This particular section of the park was actually one of the more recent additions -- acquired in 2004, it took a full decade to clear the remains of 13 former military buildings before it opened to the public in 2014, thanks in large part to advocacy from Friends of Wompatuck.
