- Parker Pond Headland Preserve — This preserve, with about 2.5 miles of trail, has a lovely high ledge with views over the pond and a little island. Another pond access point seems swimmable.
- Surry Hill Community Forest — Hike less than a mile up a wide, easy track for nice views from an open 600-foot summit over nearby fields, sparkling lakes, and even the White Mountains, 63 miles in the distance. Lots of biking trails here, too.
- Oak Hill Conservation Area — A ~1.2-mile loop trail will bring you up a gentle hill to views through an opening in the trees of Echo Lake.
- Hales Pond Woodland Preserve — At this 76-acre preserve, you can do a 1.5 mile walk that includes a stretch along the quiet pond. No dogs allowed.
- Baldwin Hill Conservation Cemetery — Walk up a 0.3-mile driveway to a view and a peaceful 10-acre green burial ground nestled amid white pines.
