Pegan Hill, Natick, MA | Aerial Footage

Flyover of beautiful Pegan Hill in Natick and Dover, Massachusetts.

At 410 feet, Pegan Hill is the highest point in Natick. This classic glacial drumlin is forested with pine, oak, maple, and birch. From the one-mile trail that runs along its north-south axis, you can take in partial views from the summit southeast toward the Great Blue Hill.

For more than 100 years, Pegan Hill was home to the Pegan Indians, a group of “Praying Indians” first led by the Reverend John Eliot beginning in 1651. They cleared the hill for cropland and pasture, but by the 1760s, the Pegan Indians had perished, and settlers had taken over farming. Stone walls are the only remaining evidence of these farming days.
