Scargo Tower

A hill with a view


Family Time Off The Beaten Path

Address:
Scargo Hill Road
(Off Route 6A)
East Dennis, MA 02638

Description

This brick tower is not remarkable for its architecture; it does, however, have a great view. Located on top of the 160-foot Scargo Hill in Dennis (the highest point on the Cape), a clear day allows views of the Provincetown Monument to the west and mainland Massachusetts to the east. In almost any weather condition you can see Scargo Lake, which was named after a Native American princess. You may find it a romantic spot too, especially for sunsets and star gazing.
