Wallum Lake Area Bouldering

Parking for Wallum Lake can be found via Wallum Lake Road in Douglas. Follow this road for about a mile before an obvious right hand turn onto Wallum Lake Park Road (across from maintenance building and Smokey Bear sign). Follow this about a half mile and past a toll booth. Parking fees are required from Memorial Day through Labor Day and costs $9 for MA residents, $30 for out of staters (A MA state parks annual pass is $60). Continue to the right, past a dirt parking area, stay right, and enter a paved lot. All boulders are accessed via a major trail at the back right (northwest) corner of the lot.

This is the only parking area of the state forest that requires a parking fee (in the summer). These boulders can still be accessed via other trailheads albeit with a much longer approach. You can also avoid the fee by parking after 5:30 in the summer.
