Getting There

Wompatuck State Park is located in Hingham, Massachusetts, on Boston's South Shore. Once you reach the park entrance you’re still about 15-20 minutes from being at the race venue - depending on race day traffic. Make sure you leave this extra time beyond what mapping programs and GPS’s indicate!


For navigation, use park address of 204 Union St, Hingham, MA 02043.

That will get you to the park's visitors Center. Please be warned: Some navigation apps may send you to the wrong entrance (locked gate) if you just select "Wompatuck State Park". 


Once you arrive at the park's Visitor Center, you'll proceed 1.9 miles down the main park road till you turn right (there's a sign) through the gate that leads to South Field. Follow signs another 1.9 miles until you reach the race venue. There you'll be directed by volunteers on where and how to park depending on the size of your vehicle. 


And by all means, PLEASE CARPOOL to the race if you can. The fewer cars crammed into South Field the better! THANK YOU!
