A great place to spot wildlife
Arlington's Great Meadows is a 183-acre parcel of land located in east Lexington, right off the minuteman Bikeway. This is an excellent place to spot birds, amphibians and other wildlife. The trails are extremely well-maintained, but maybe a little tough for a stroller. There is a boardwalk over a wet meadow and a peat pond; a great place to spot cool plants and critters!
Plan B:Rent bikes at The Bike Stop 43 Dudley St, Arlington, MA 02476.
Where to Eat Nearby:Nick's place, Jackson's Kitchen, and Domino's pizza nearby
