Hiking/Running
This is a lovely little wooded area across Grove st. There are two man made ponds that you can skate on when they freeze over in the winter. The road leads up to the Brooks mansion (the only home older than this one in the area), the original home of the Brooks family, which also owned this house. While you’re hiking, be on the look out for bard owls, woodpeckers, deer, and even coyote! (The coyote are generally not interested in humans, although I suggest not provoking them 🙂).

The Fells are a great place to hike. It’s extensive with both hard and easy paths. At this particular address there’s the parking area that is closest to Wright’s Tower. From there you can get a spectacular view of Boston!
