A few years ago, Framingham's Parks and Recreation opened a 1-mile section of the aqueduct for public use as a trail. This flat, easy trail is a great way to get around the neighborhood on your own feet or wheels! The raised aqueduct path will give you a unique perspective into neighbor's yards. Make sure to stay on top of the path, because wandering off-trail will put you in private property. The aqueduct can be accessed at Elm Street, Bradford Road, Edith Street, and Water Street.

Head over to the shops and restaurants on Route 30.

Nearby on Route 30, there's a McDonald's and a Panera.
