About this Location

Haggetts Pond is the reservoir for the town of Andover. It is located in the western part of the town and also lends its name to a road. The Merrimack River is connected to the pond to add volume to the reservoir.

It is bordered by MA-133 on the south. Not far to the northwest is I-495; to the northeast is I-93.

Permissible activities include walking, hiking, jogging biking, and fishing. Only registered rowboats are allowed on the reservoir and fishing must be done from either the shoreline or a rowboat (no hip waders). Canoeing or kayaking, windsurfing, sailing, ice skating, and ice fishing are prohibited. Swimming, bathing, wading, and pets in the water are also prohibited.

Hiking trails, some converted from a former railway (the Lowell and Lawrence Railroad), encircle the pond.
