Hale's 1,200 acres have easy and moderately challenging hiking/walking trails, two beaches (though one is membership only), open fields, rock outcroppings, and other fun natural features to explore. Definitely check out the Page and Sadie trail (1.7 miles) which goes around Noanet Pond and traverses wetlands, outcroppings, and everything in between.

Plan B:

Head to Dedham town center for a bite to eat at one of several restaurants.

Where to Eat Nearby:

Dedham town center is the closest best bet for a variety of restaurant options.
