Ponyhenge

This place is really unique and special. I think it’s a private area, but the road has enough shoulder space to park for a short time. They’ve created a really interesting setup for whimsical/fantasy photography. I really enjoyed it!

I always think it's cool that the horses may be in different places every time you go. The mini sheep across the street is an added bonus.

Finally saw this bucket lister! What a fun, local legend. Looks like the number of ponies featured varies and luckily there are about 50 right now.

What a cool road trip detour. Beautiful area and a fun site

Cute fun place to visit!

What a cool hidden gem. Happen to meet the owner that lives on the property. He was so friendly and willing to share the story that this all started with his daughters pony that she outgrew. The project took a life of its own, however he has always approved and welcomes the attention. Park on the side, don’t interfere with traffic. The drive there is beautiful. Lots of farm land surrounding ponyhenge

Truly, a wonder and a treat! Also, the next field over has bluebird boxes, and is swarming with their sky-saturated occupants on this fine day, as well as a kestral box, whose residents we both heard and saw, and also a bonus oriole, gather materials to weave her nest!

I heard about this place through a colleague. The ride out is beautiful. The town of Lincoln is lovely - pretty town with small farms. As I drove up I was greeted by about 30 sheep yelling at me from the other side of the road - so funny. Apparently no one knows how or why this started. I think in my head I was expecting large rocking horses but they are kids toys so they are smaller than they look in pics. I threw my drone up to capture some aerial shots and took a bunch of pics. It is both creepy and cool at the same time. Parking is limited on the side of the road. 4 stars - I would go if you need a destination but it is a quick look and you are out.

Ponyhenge! Because why not? Someone either has a wicked sense of humor or too many rocking horses on hand. Either way, they created a public art exhibit and I am loving it! So many rocking horses. Big. Small. Wood. Plastic. Pink. Brown. I shared photos with family and one of them said it was 'creepy'. Ha! A bunch of children's rocking horses, in a random rural field, arranged in a circle? Sure, I can see how you might see that as creepy! Hahaha. I found it a delightful bit of whimsy and am SO happy to share in the fun. The site is maintained by whomever is our host. The circle was mowed making it easy to walk around and enjoy. The pathways to the site, which is very close to the street, are also kept clear. It's definitely off the beaten path and worth the extra time because the drive in is on lovely, windy, tree lined, back roads. A nice break from highway driving. Parking is roadside. Please do not park in the driveway next to the henge as that is someone's driveway. Go have some fun. Or go creep yourself out. Which ever way you see it, it's totally worth a stop!

New England's version of the old England attraction--also known as the Rocking Horse Graveyard--is constantly in flux but one thing is certain: Like its counterpart across the pond, no one quite knows how or why so many toy rocking horses ended up in a field in Lincoln. During peak weather (May-October) I would recommend wearing bug repellent and closed-toes shoes during your visit.

A MUST DO! A FREE EVENT & FREE PARKING! 4 & 1/2 STARS! England has Stonehenge, America has Ponyhenge. It's time to take you into the mysterious world of the unknown, where UFO's & outer space aliens exist. Think Stonehenge, The Ancient Pyramids, Crop Circles & Area 51. This is a Free Kitschy Roadside Attraction that is both mysterious & humorous. It's one of the Secret Hidden Gems of America that most people have never heard of or been to before. Located about 15 miles outside of Boston, there is a field of kid's rocking horses all displayed in a uniform pattern. Then you come back here the next time & suddenly the herd of horses has multiplied & mysteriously been rearranged into a new different formation. Nobody has ever seen people donating or rearranging the furniture. It must be little green men from outer space - Martians who beam down in their flying saucer in the middle of the night & do all this.LOL! Here are the rules:If you see other people it's OK to stop. If you are donating a horse keep it covered & hidden in your car. Have a designated lookout when there are no cars or people & the coast is clear, hurriedly get your horse out of your car. Then squeeze your horse into the current formation. Then run back to your vehicle & get the heck out of Dodge as fast as you can, so nobody sees you. LOL! We've got to keep this thing going. It's been going on for years since 2010. It's also called "The Rocking Horse Graveyard". People put their rocking horses & other horse memorabilia literally "Out to Pasture". This is not a vacant lot of land or a public park, it's someone's private property, so be respectful. In an era where there are signs everywhere on people's property - No Trespassing, Private Property Keep Out, Armed Guard Response, Attack Dog, Police Surveillance. This is just the opposite. The owner lets people do this just to give people some joy that doesn't cost any money.& is a Throwback to a Bygone era. Hats off to the owner! It's the simple pleasures in life that brings joy to people. Nobody has ever seen anybody donate nor rearrange the horses. People come in the middle of the night & rearrange things. So when people visit here they can say It must be creatures from outer space in UFO's. I love this stuff. Instead of putting your old horse memorabilia in the trash & ending up in a landfill & polluting the planet, donate it here. As you walk around, I bet you never knew how many different types, styles & colors of rocking horses existed. Imagine donating your old discarded rocking horse & instead of it ending up in a landfill 1) Now it is magically transformed into part of a bigger Cool Art Installation. 2) Now you're part of a UFO Cover-Up Conspiracy. Keep it Quet & Anonymous. How did these horses ever get here & multiply & rearrange themselves? Beings from another world. 3) You're going to make the next group of people who visit a little bit happier. Not too shabby for an item that you may have thrown out as trash. Be sure to head on over right across the road, you can see the sheep grazing on the grass lwho Baaaah & are happy to see people. To make it worth your trip you can check out 2 other good places that are close by Codman Farms in Lincoln & Dairy Joy in Weston that's been there for over 60 years that has an old-school classic Creamsicle soft serve Java berry & the classic marble twist vanilla and chocolate. See my reviews and pictures of each. It used to be, you had to have Mega Bucks & be really Rich to have the Good Life, not anymore. The Game has changed. You've been Upgraded. Now You Can Live Like a King on a Limited Budget!

It's really not much other than WIERD enough to be cool. Drive out with my daughter on a driving lesson, about an hour each way backroads, it was fun and worth the drive. While it's in the middle of nowhere it is reminiscent of old road side attractions

I live so nearby. I can't believe it has taken me so long to get here. Especially due to my affinity to roadside kitsch. Small field full of hobby horses. Old ones. Newer ones. All in various states of disrepair. But beautiful in its own way. A relatively small installation. You could easily miss it if you were speeding by in typical Boston driver fashion. But take the time to slow down and visit the ponies. You will be happy you did.

Fun. Not much to see, however. To park, pull up parallel to the horses, after the rocks. I actually liked it better than the deCordova sculpture park. Not sure what this says about me, lol. I say more about that in the other review.

One of my favorite mysteries. A crop circle of toy horses of different sizes, materials and attitudes that's always growing. I want to come back in 10 years and see how it's changed - I hope all visitors continue to treat it and the property it's on with respect. Stay gold, Pony Boys.

I left one there in September of 2016 in memory of my late son, who was a Marine, that was his as a boy. Unfortunately, shortly after, people discarded it along with MANY other ponies just to have their own design! It was heartbreaking. Just know if you visit, many of the ponies are missing. It was marked with a note and a photo of him on it, so, they knew what they were doing. :(

the photo encapsulates everything this place has to offer. was disappointed to roll up to this where there is no place to park. interesting but not worth driving or making a trip to go.

This is one of the weirdest (and most fun) places to see in the metrowest area of Boston. Rocking horses of every size, shape, color, and year of manufacture sit in concentric circles (and occasionally lined up in rows) on a random patch of farmland on the side of a road. Kids ride the horses. Adults gawk and take pictures and selfies. Ponyhenge has been here for about a decade. Google it and you can read articles. Nobody knows who brings new horses. Nobody cares. It's a tourist trap of sorts and it's spread by word of mouth. As we live during a pandemic, many of the horses are now wearing masks.

I don't understand the excitement around this. There is no parking so even if you wanted to get out it feel awkward doing so. There's literally nothing but what you see in people review photos I was honestly very disappointed!

Okay, this is not that serious, people. It's a roadside attraction. Yes, there IS roadside parking. It's a field with a lot of rocking horses in it, and it's supposed to be weird.

RIDE, CAPTAIN RIDE. There is no real address, no admittance fee and no ticket taker. There is only a circle of weathered hobby horses standing silently on a small sliver of farmland in a small Massachusetts town about 15 miles west of Boston. Some are ancient rocking steeds with secrets to tell, others are wild plastic stallions cracked from the elements but still bouncing jauntily in the summer breeze. Is it a business? Well, it is whatever you want it to be. Around 2010 a lone toy hobby horse appeared in the field. No one knows the origins. An abandoned toy? A tribute to a lost child? And that was just the beginning. Ponies of replica varieties began appearing until the group seemed like its own tribe of wild toys standing like a plastic equestrian Stonehenge. The toys are constantly in a state of rearrangement as if they cannot decide on a permanent configuration. They lounge in the grass or stand upright at attention. They are in a frozen-prance around a small artificial Christmas tree or clustered around a child's plastic table complete with a tea set. Even the property owner is mystified and joyfully told the Boston Globe in 2015, "There was something lovely about it being anonymous, and now every time we go away, another one appears." So, to be clear, this attraction is merely a small field with plastic and wooden horses presiding over it. There is no concession, no seating, no show or lecture. You go, you look, you think and then you leave. Wonders of the modern world are just like that. It doesn't have to DO anything. It just IS. Ponyhenge. Take Rt-117 west and turn left onto Old Sudbury Road. Ponyhenge is half a mile down on your left (just after you pass Boyce Farm Road). For GPS you can set the address to "39 Old Sudbury Rd. Lincoln MA" and go down the road a piece. There is a pull-off directly in front of Ponyhenge.

went there and saw a guy just sitting on a horse. not even moving. not even sure if he was alive. just staring into the void

Go, walk around, or stand quietly and look at each little pony. It is as good as any church.
