Jacobs Hill, Nature reserve in Royalston, Massachusetts, US.
Jacobs Hill extends across 173 acres of woodlands, ledges, and wetlands, featuring Spirit Falls, a 30-foot waterfall within the protected landscape.
The Trustees of Reservations acquired this land in 1975 through anonymous funding, with additional sections incorporated in 1978 and 1994.
The reserve forms part of the 22-mile Tully Trail system, connecting multiple natural areas for public recreation and environmental education.
Visitors can access the trailhead from Massachusetts Route 68, located half a mile from Royalston center, with parking available for hikers.
From the elevated ledges, visitors observe panoramic views of the Berkshires, Long Pond, Tully River Valley, Tully Mountain, and Mount Grace.
