An alternative way that I've used in the past to determine the region
boundaries using the Connection is as follows:
RegionLocator locator =
connection.getRegionLocator(TableName.valueOf("your-table-name"));
final Pair<byte[][], byte[][]> startEndKeys = locator.getStartEndKeys();
byte[][] startKeys = startEndKeys.getFirst();
byte[][] endKeys = startEndKeys.getSecond();
