Boojum Rock stands as the city's highest point at approximately 280 feet above sea level. It's a great spot to rest and take in views of the Boston skyline. The nearby site of the 1899 MIT Observatory offers historical interest, with its remaining foundation and informative sign. Boojum Rock, one of four peaks along the Rock Circuit Trail, is accessible via this hiking path, making it a popular spot in the Middlesex Fells Reservation.
