Wilson Mountain Reservation, Nature reserve in Dedham, United States.

Wilson Mountain Reservation is a nature reserve in Dedham with varied terrain, dense rhododendron thickets, and multiple hiking trails through wooded areas. The landscape features different elevation levels and vegetation zones that are accessible year-round.

The reservation was established by the Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation as part of the Metropolitan Park System protecting the Boston area. This protection ensured the woodland would be preserved from future development.

The reservation supports environmental education by providing opportunities to observe local wildlife and plants in their natural Massachusetts habitats.

The site is freely accessible from sunrise to sunset year-round with marked trails and free parking available near Common Street. Visitors should wear proper hiking shoes and expect muddy or slippery conditions after rain.

The summit reaches about 295 feet and is the highest point in Dedham with views toward Boston. On clear days this overlook offers a rare perspective from this unexpected high point in a nearby forest.
