About

Hopkinton State Park encompasses 1,500 acres of forested land surrounding the scenic Hopkinton Reservoir in Hopkinton and Ashland, Massachusetts. The park is a popular day-use destination offering diverse recreational opportunities year-round. During the warmer months from late May through Labor Day, two seasonally lifeguarded beaches provide swimming access, while Regatta Point Community Sailing offers kayak, canoe, and stand-up paddleboard rentals. The park features more than 10 miles of multi-use trails suitable for hiking, mountain biking, horseback riding, cross-country skiing, and snowmobiling. Multiple picnic areas throughout the park include tables and stationary charcoal grills available first-come, first-served, plus two pavilions that can be reserved seasonally. The historic earthen dam provides scenic views of the reservoir, and fishing is permitted throughout the park. Non-motorized boats can be hand-launched at the car-top boat ramp. Dogs are welcome on leash but are prohibited from beaches May 1 through September 15. Parking fees apply from May through mid-October. It is important to note that Hopkinton State Park does not offer camping facilities or permit overnight stays of any kind.
