Beautiful wet land. Great chance to see lovely flowering plants and animals. Excellent foot bridges.

Short trail with boardwalks over the brook. A nice place to see birds. Always lots of mallards and geese and the occasional teal or wood duck. The "discover park" a bit further down also has a trail all the way to Little Pond. I only wish the two areas were connected and/or the Alewife Brook area was larger, because by the time I've finished the Alewife Brook trail I am always left wanting more. Make sure to stop off at Revival for a coffee on your way back!

A beautiful natural path winding elegantly through the luxury apartments of North Cambridge. Biking and walking trails flank bodies of water containing swans, ducks, geese, and assorted birds. Wooden dock-like walkways also stretch across certain ponds.

Just use the Alewife Station lot. We went in on Saturday morning and it was free. Watch for signs since they closed their main entrance. Not sure where the temp entrance is.

Is parking available?
