Directions

A 100-acre former landfill transformed into one of Boston's best-kept secrets, with extensive trail networks, open fields, and direct access to the Charles River. Mountain bikers, trail runners, and dog owners swear by it for its uncrowded, genuinely natural feel. It's car-dependent and far from the T, so plan accordingly — but that's exactly why it stays blissfully quiet.
