About the Business
Located in Hingham, Massachusetts, World's End is a beautiful park and tourist attraction featuring rolling hills, rocky shorelines, and sweeping views of the Boston skyline. The park comprises four coastal drumlins, created by glaciers, extending into Hingham Harbor. Originally planned as a residential subdivision in the late 1800s, the development never came to fruition, and the land was eventually preserved by The Trustees and dedicated locals in the 1960s.

The landscape includes saltwater marshes, meadows, woodlands, and granite ledges. Advance passes are required for weekends and holidays, with parking passes also recommended.
In addition to hiking and exploring the natural beauty of World's End, visitors can enjoy live music, local food, and craft brews on site. The park also offers educational programs for school and youth groups.

Reviews
"Great 3 mile loop walk around the bay area. We didn’t know that tickets need to be purchased in advance but were still able to buy them upon entry. $15 on the weekends and $10 on weekdays if you’re driving in."
"Nice place to walk, run or stroll with the dogs on a quiet sunny day. Pretty views, wide trails plenty of shade and a lot of benches to rest and enjoy tranquility, fresh air and picturesque seascapes."
"Beautiful day for a walk and big enough for all to spread out and have some solitude. This is a great place to bird watch and there are blinds for viewing without disturbing. First time seeing great egrets so clearly perched in a dead tree. Lots of other birds spotted as well. Book your parking spot ahead of time on the Trustees website. It is $10 a car."
"Super cool hiking spot! Went with some friends on a windy day, excellent views of Boston and the harbor! Make a reservation ahead of time; it's well worth the price. Trails are graveled, relatively flat, and not too difficult."
"My favorite place on the south shore to go and walk. It’s so beautiful. It’s a little steep at $15 entrance fee (per car) for non-members. It’s important to note, you have to book ahead of time. Last time, I took stuff for a picnic to make worth of my time, it can get pretty buggy, so bring bug spray. The views of the water and the boats are beautiful."
