Lone Tree Conservation Area

Highlight • Forest

Lone Tree Hill Conservation Land in Belmont, Massachusetts (often called Lone Tree Conservation Area) offers a peaceful mix of forest, meadow, and historic carriage roads. Popular with walkers, runners, and dog owners, its wide trails wind through oak and pine woodlands and open fields with views toward Belmont Hill. Interpretive signs highlight the area’s history, including former estate grounds and stone walls. While biking is permitted on the main access roads, it’s limited—narrower trails are for foot traffic only. It's a great local spot for a quiet outing close to town, especially in fall when the foliage lights up.

Along the scenic Western Greenway Trail you will cross a long section of narrow boardwalk through the woods and wetlands. This is a pretty part of the trail and a great spot to look for birds and other wildlife. Be aware, however, that it is quite narrow and there are no railings, so it is recommended to walk your bike, especially if there are hikers or other users on the boardwalk.
