Confirmed from Webb Memorial State Park's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.
Scenic peninsula park on Boston Harbor offering fishing, walking paths & city skyline views.
What runners say about Webb Memorial State Park
“I love that the restrooms are clean, stocked, easy to get to, and they've been consistently open until 5pm or later in August and September, at least.”
“There are so many beautiful views , there is spots where you can have a picnic and cookouts.”
“It has a quiet charm, it is never too full, and there are 2 sides where you can walk on the beach.”
“It is dog friendly, but the dogs have to be leashed.”
I love this park. It’s so simple but so beautiful. It has a nice little walking trail and a view of the sea. So beautiful in the spring, with a lot of lovely plants and flowers. Also a great place to take little walks on the beach without having to go to a big beach in Boston or on the north shore. It’s very peaceful.
I love this park, it is truly beautiful. It has a quiet charm, it is never too full, and there are 2 sides where you can walk on the beach. It is dog friendly, but the dogs have to be leashed. There is a water fountain for people, and a lower one for dogs.
This is a real gem!! I wouldn't drive from far, but for those in Weymouth and Hingham, this is a delightful hidden treasure! It has the perfect trails for a leisurely walk or a quick run (totally doable with kids and dogs- probably a little too short for adults to bike), that varies in view from meadow, forest, view…
Great park to walk and enjoy the 'million dollar view' of the harbor and Boston skyline. Large parking lot. Picnic tables and benches throughout the park. Anglers fishing from the shore line with success. A lot of animals: rabbits, birds, deer.
