Wampatuck Hill
About
Wampatuck Hill is a summit in Massachusetts, about 2 miles from the town of Milton. It sits at an elevation of 349 feet. For comfortable weather, aim for late spring or early fall. Typical averages from a nearby weather station at Blue Hill show September highs around 73°F with lows near 56°F, and May highs around 67°F. The station sits a few hundred feet higher than the summit, so temperatures on the hill may run slightly warmer. The hill makes an easy anchor for a day of climbing or hiking. The Overlook and Rattlesnake Rocks climbing areas are each about 0.2 miles away, and the Crags Foot Path and Quarries Foot Path hikes are within a mile.
