Rachel's Trail to the Holt Hill summit Route: Rachel's Trail, other unknown trails, Holt Hill, access road On my way to the Red Sox game, I stopped off at Holt Hill in Andover for a quick hike. Though there was a mostly sunny forecast, there were a lot of clouds. My original intent was to also hike over to Boston Hill, however due to tollbooth traffic, this wasn't in the cards. The hike was a rather gentle one - looping around a hayfield, then through some woods, and up the hill to the summit. The summit has a great view of the Boston skyline. There is a tower on top, also, however it's fenced off.
