I am SO glad I found this "hidden gem" (I guess tourists don't know about it!) I needed something in nature to do on my solo trip and I love gardens so I decided to stop here. I am beyond God that I did because it was absolutely beautiful. I visited May 21st in the azaleas and rhododendrons were in full bloom. It was quite the sight to see and so peaceful walking around the various trails. There were a few other people there but not many so it felt like I was completely alone. I'll definitely be making this must go to stop every time I go to the cape in the middle of the stop in a different times of the year to see what else is in bloom. The couple that started this had a really beautiful vision and I'm so grateful that the trust continues to carry on their legacy with this beautiful garden. I loved reading the plaques with their story on it.

I found this little "hidden gem" as others are calling it while searching on YELP for parks near Falmouth. I am so glad that I came by. There were not any flowers blooming on visit but I really enjoyed the area. The little lake you walk around is very picturesque. I spent quite a while looking at all the old anchors and items around. If you are in the area and looking for a nice quiet place to wonder around and enjoy the nature this is the spot for you!

Anchor with a view.

This is a hidden gem in Falmouth. It is walking distance from downtown and each season provides a different perspective. Open from dawn to dusk. Beautiful.

“Set on a quiet mostly private lake (oyster pond) this garden is meticulously maintained and yet still very natural.”

I find this park to be very fascinating and mysterious little peninsula into the ocean. Hailing…read morefrom California, it was quite bizarre to me to see World's End, where deciduous forests and fall foliage appear to blend seamlessly into dramatic seaside bluffs and the scent of the Atlantic floats over the entire isolated peninsula. There is also a small tidal marsh and bird blind. The hills in the peninsula are called drumlins, due to their shape and how they were formed from glacial migration. Parking costs about 15 dollars and there is not a whole lot of parking. You really should get an advanced pass, but we were fortunate and were able to get in despite it being Halloweekend. There weren't too many people there, mostly scattered couples and dogs. The paths are a bit confusing and highly looping. World's End almost became a residential subdivision once upon a time, and Frederick Olmsted was hired to design it. There are stately carriage paths and trees planted for this subdivision, but the project was called off. I found this to provide a mysterious ambiance to the peninsula, as it seemed somewhat halfway between a residential subdivision (easy to imagine some little suburban houses sprouting among the trees) and a wilderness area. There are conveniently placed maps at most of the junctions which can aid the lost traveller. I would give World's End 2 or 3 hours to fully explore. It's about 200 acres, with many benches and good viewpoints. You can see lovely views of the Harbor islands and Boston skyline from the peninsula. I especially liked the Bar, a region of the peninsula where it narrows, before reading "World's End" proper. I found this to be a lovely place and definitely enlivened my curiosity. The mystery and beauty of this park is captivating!

This past weekend, myself and a buddy wanted to get out of Boston and shake up our walking route…read moreand landed on World's End. Be careful when putting the address into your navigation, especially Waze users, as it took us to the totally wrong location at first. Once you arrive, however, parking is pretty straightforward. It costs $10/car. The staff at the hut where you pay for parking was super helpful in letting us know what route would best suit our time constraints. We were even given a map! The trails were pretty clear, some maybe weren't as clearly defined as they could've been. Note for hikers: this does feel like more a stroll in the park as opposed to a true hike. Some hidden paths did feel like one, however, so don't be afraid to venture off what seems to be the most defined routes. We loved the views of the Boston skyline, harbour, and Hull, MA. This place is definitely worth a visit. I'm looking forward to coming back in autumn to see some good foliage!
