Weston, Massachusetts isn’t exactly a major destination for would-be vacationers. However, there are things you can see and do there, and it does make for a nice stopover and reprieve from the more-hyped destinations.
In season, visitors can ski downhill or use the cross-country trails. It’s very popular with the locals too. Weston Ski Track charges per person, per day, but you will have to bring your own skis.
Just off the beaten path in Weston (a.k.a., the highway), Norumbega Tower reaches above the treetops and overlooks a path down to a beach. Built to pay homage to a long past Viking village nearby, the tower is both fascination and oddity in the middle of nowhere.
An in-depth look at how stamps began in this country and how they have progressed in design and use is here. The history is of special importance to philatelists and history buffs alike. Kids have their own area where they can learn about the history of stamps and use materials to create a stamp design. Since Ben Franklin was the first Postmaster General and served in Boston, it just makes sense for Weston to have a stamp museum fifteen miles from where the former famous mail man worked.
Weston is very close to Boston. It has many historical sites as they relate to the Revolutionary War, including Golden Ball Tavern, where the British held one of their headquarters.
