Dion’s Wood is Boston’s newest park and nature reserve. It is a 35-acre nature reserve located just a short walk north of Boston town centre along the scenic Maud Foster drain across from the Pilgrim’s Hospital.

With an accessible selection of all-weather paths and a nature-feature lake to help attract wildlife, Dion’s Wood Nature Reserve welcomes all visitors. From the Reserve, you can enjoy great views of Boston’s iconic landmarks, St Botolph’s Church (The Stump) and Maud Foster Mill.

The entrance to the nature reserve can be accessed from Willoughby Road, alongside the Maud Foster Drain, across an arching footbridge from the Old Cemetery nature reserve and arboretum; a perfect pairing of the old and the new of Boston’s parks for you to experience.

This nature reserve has been developed and maintained by Boston Woods Trust.
