Trails at Mass Audubon

Pleasant Valley © Brooks Payne

Updated November 9, 2020

After closing our sanctuaries in late March to help stop the spread of COVID-19, we are now happy to share that, after careful analysis and discussions with local officials, we've been able to safely open the trails at our wildlife sanctuaries. 

Please Note

• Most buildings & most facilities remain closed (no water fountains available)
• Bathrooms are closed at all sanctuaries except Arcadia, Broad Meadow Brook, Drumlin Farm, Long Pasture, Wachusett Meadow, & Wellfleet Bay
• All visitors should follow trail safety guidelines; dogs & bikes are not permitted; carry out anything you bring in

→ Reservations Required at Select Sanctuaries & Museums ←

For visitor and staff safety, we are limiting the number of people on the trails at any given time. We are using an Entry & Parking Ticket Reservation system for the following sanctuaries:

• Broadmoor (closed Mondays)
• Ipswich River (closed Mondays)
• Drumlin Farm (closed Mondays)
• Blue Hills Trailside Museum (weekends only)
• Museum of American Bird Art (Friday-Sunday only)
