No. Like other Wildlife Management Areas, Quisset is kept in a natural state rather than maintained for hiking, so expect informal paths and rough terrain.
The only dedicated lot is a small pull-off at the end of Quisset Hill Road in Mendon that fits about four cars; Blackstone-side visitors cross a Quisset WCE parcel from Mendon Street instead.
Are there trails at Quisset Wildlife Management Area?
Yes.
What rules should I know at Quisset Wildlife Management Area?
Hunting and trapping occur on this land; visitors during open seasons should wear blaze orange, though exact season dates are not confirmed here.
