Beaver Brook Reservation is a series of green spaces connecting parks and trails. This section of Beaver Brook Reservation offers paved pathways, wooded trails, picnic areas, and open fields. This is a great park for an afternoon picnic, short hike, or bring the whole family for a field day! There is even a spray park for those hot summer days!
Access this park on Waverly-Oaks road and you can walk follow the path through the woods, across Trapelo Road, and continue up Mill Street to visit the frog ponds.
Plan B:Visit the National Archives, just down the street on Trapelo Road. See http://www.archives.gov/index.html for hours and more information.
Where to Eat Nearby:
