A peaceful little park close to the Alewife train station. The paths are well maintained and the pedestrian crossing to the Cambridge Discovery Park office area has a blue light safety system. The little stream and pond are very pleasant, and there’s nice seating and a grassy area in the middle.
🌳 A hidden gem in Cambridge! Alewife Brook Reservation is a peaceful escape tucked right into the city. Perfect for a morning walk, an afternoon jog, or simply relaxing with nature. The trails are clean and easy to navigate, and the views by the water are especially calming. There’s a beautiful mix of shaded paths, open green spaces, and even quiet spots to sit and reflect. I was pleasantly surprised by how serene and well-maintained everything was. Highly recommend it for anyone needing a quick nature reset without leaving town!
Urban Park near route 2 with some conservation land. You can hear the cars from the highway There is an industrial Park where I took these pictures. Very close to the Alewife T station and Bike trail that runs through Arlington and hooks to other bike trails in Cambridge and Belmont. Its good for what it is
I really enjoy this place, it’s great for a quick walk or make it a little longer with the bike path that runs alongside it. Sometimes there are some good things to forage, I found some sumac (not pictured)… but most of the time it’s just a great place to see how beautiful nature can be when fairly “untouched” by city life
A great little walk, so close to the city but it feels like you are in your own piece of nature. Gets you away from the noise and chaos for some fresh air. I just love going for walks and runs in this area, plus so accessible being right next to the bike path and Alewife train station.
