Parks & Nature

There's a few miles of hiking/running starting from Coolidge Hill park. I regularly run a 4 - 5 mi circuit using those trails and roads to Memorial school then on the aqueduct trail to Cottage Street and back home.

My family and I spent a lot of time at Cochituate State Park. Great picnic venue. Swimming and boat rental is available on the lake there. My daughter works at the boat rental service there.
