Wachusett Dam Day in Clinton

Take A Stroll Across the Wachusett Dam in Clinton on Sunday, October 8th from 10am-1pm.

One of two days each year visitors can stroll across from one side to the other, and see the panoramic view of the reservoir. The walkway along the top of the majestic Wachusett Dam was originally closed in the 1990s due to water supply security and public safety concerns. In recent years, DCR has been able to open the dam to the public for a day during the spring and fall. DCR Watershed Rangers will be on hand to provide information regarding the agency’s watershed protection program, which is responsible for the protection of the metropolitan Boston water supply, including the Wachusett Reservoir and watershed area.
