Mount Watatic, Mountain summit in Ashburnham, Massachusetts, US
Mount Watatic rises to 558 meters with open slopes, rock formations, and dense forest areas along its steep sides.
The mountain operated as a winter sports destination from the 1930s until 1984, featuring multiple ski runs and a state fire tower.
The name Watatic comes from Native American term Wetu-tick, meaning wigwam brook, originally referring to a nearby water stream.
Hikers can access the mountain via the Wapack Trail from the parking area on Rindge State Road, completing a three-mile round trip.
The summit drainage splits between Souhegan River leading to Atlantic Ocean and Millers River flowing toward Long Island Sound.
