Description

Northeast of Boston city centre is a collection of green spaces, including the Beaver Brook North Reservation, Rock Meadow Conservation Area, and Lone Tree Conservation Area.

This lovely running loop passes through those three areas, and also visits the area surrounding Wellington Hill, just to the north of Concord Avenue. The loop takes you on a variety of trails, from paved roads to forested paths, and covers over 6 miles.

As well as the views for which the area is known, this part of Boston is also home to deer, foxes and an impressive variety of bird species.

As you will likely have realized when looking at the map, there are plenty of options to shorten this loop, doing it in its entirety is highly recommended.
