Pudding Hill / Pembroke

Pembroke, Trail, Wildlands Trust
Pudding Hill Reservation is located off Rt 123 in Pembroke near Marshfield Center. The site consists of two main pieces: field leading to a pond and short wooded trails. The primary trail entrance is located just at the base of the pine tree covered hillside across from the pond. The Pudding Hill reservation is managed by the Wildlands Trust.
