5 years agoNice place to take a hike. It has a small course that you can make a loop in 10 -15 mins, but other trails will take you on a longer walk. I've seen white tailed deer here not far off the path, so you can "connect with nature" if that's your intention.

5 years agoI take my dogs here for quick walks. There's a nice 2 mile loop (paved but a bit broken in places). Not overly crowded - except by turtle pond in the summer. There is a small parking lot and space to park on the side of the road.

5 years agoGreat trails, paths, handicap-accesible, and easy access to neighboring and cross-traffic trails. To be able to walk from my apartment, just off of Washington St. In West Roxbury (.5mi from Dedham Mall) and in under 10 minutes be in wooded, preserved and maintained outdoor space is a wonderful blessing! Dog walking, trail running, spaces to stop, wooded areas, water (swimming in summer at own risk) and other places within the reservation area that regularly get used for congregation (of many sorts) all exist. Enjoy your time outside!

9 months agoFriend and I love biking and hiking here. Go frequently and it is always a good time. Actually forget that time exists. Great place to walk pets and just explore all around. Doesn't matter what season, each one offers something slightly different.
