1.1 miles; Sherborn, MA This is a Trustees of the Reservation property which is actually a part of the Rocky Narrows Reservation in Sherborn. It’s a very beautiful spot to from which to view the Charles River, as there are no buildings on either bank for a long stretch. This was also part of my […]

Then a long walk on a busy road. Only redeeming feature? A Dunkin’ Donuts along the route. Hope this trail gets better soon… The first part of this hike was actually […]
