Maudslay State Park is a picturesque natural oasis featuring 19th century gardens, rolling meadows, towering pines, and one of the largest stands of mountain laurel in Massachusetts. This well-maintained park offers multiple trails perfect for walking, hiking, biking, and even horseback riding, with smooth, level, and well-marked paths. Visitors can enjoy the blooming rhododendron forests, native pollinator gardens, and stunning views of the Merrimack River. Educational programs are available during the summer months, making Maudslay State Park an ideal destination for families and nature enthusiasts alike. With a small fee for non-Massachusetts residents, the park is a beautiful and accessible outdoor retreat.
Very nice walk/experience. I got to see a deer poop and eat at the same time, it was cute.
The one thing I do not like is that out of state plates pay $15 more to park which I think is ridiculous given that I live in Massachusetts but have out of state plates.

Had a great time exploring the park today. Very scenic. Very clean. Got to meet my local park ranger as well.
