Borderland State Park, Historic state park in Easton, United States
The 1,843-acre Borderland State Park contains a three-story mansion from 1910, six ponds, and more than 20 miles of trails through woodlands.
Artist Blanche Ames and botanist Oakes Ames created this estate in the early 1900s before Massachusetts acquired it as a state park in 1971.
The mansion interior maintains its original 1910 furnishings, offering guided tours that showcase the lifestyle of the Ames family during that period.
Visitors can access the park daily from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM, with parking fees of $5 for Massachusetts residents and $20 for non-residents.
The park features specialized trails for mountain biking, including NEMBA Trail and Bob's Trail, plus six ponds stocked with bass and pickerel.
