A 74-acre conservation area built around a disused early-1800s granite quarry, first called Robin Rock and later Kallenberg Quarry after the Swedish immigrant who ran it until his death in 1913; the town bought the site in 1964. About 1.5 miles of blazed, sometimes-steep trail climb to Bow Ridge, the highest point in Lynnfield, with views toward Boston and, on a clear day, Mount Monadnock.
