The Mill Pond Conservation Area is Burlington’s largest and most visited property. The 140-acre property surrounds the Mill Pond Reservoir and offers beautiful views of the landscape. The property contains numerous trails that wander through dry woodlands and near healthy wetlands and vernal pools. Visitors can park at the Water Treatment Plant on Winter Street or at the access point off of Town Line Road. There is also access at the end of Makechnie Road, the end of Hansen Avenue, and the end of Wellesley Avenue, though parking at those locations is difficult or prohibited.

The AllTrails website has a description and map of a hike at Mill Pond Reservoir.
