In winter, the rolling drumlins offer crystalline air and spectacular, uninterrupted vistas of the Boston skyline across the water. The wide, packed gravel and grass paths are exceptionally easy to navigate with sturdy strollers, pull-behind sleds, or snowshoes. Children will enjoy spotting winter seabirds, deer, and turkeys along the coastal fields. Restrooms are available at the entrance; advance parking reservations are recommended on sunny weekends. ## Similar picks in Boston - [Arnold Arboretum of Harvard University: Winter Evergreens & Peter's Hill Boston Views](https://grassyknees.com/boston/activities/arnold-arboretum-of-harvard-university-winter-evergreens-and-peter-s-h--listing-2090d8bcac2e484b8168505a) — Open daily sunrise to sunset, 365 days a year (Hunnewell Visitor Center open Thu–Mon… · Arnold Arboretum of Harvard University · All ages · Free · checked Nov 4.
