Beautiful hike through the marsh. We saw a lot of wildlife and pretty wildflowers during our mid-June visit. We saw hardly any other people during our hike. Recommend doing the offshoot trail to the cemetery dating from the 1600's. We continued on the red blaze trail which is wooded and shaded (unlike the marsh). The hike through the woods was nice but not as exciting as the marsh area, which is beautiful. There is also a path from the west side if the parking lot to a pretty, small beach, that was not in alltrails or our guidebook. There are interpretive signs about marsh ecosystems. Great place for kids.

Lovely greenway and market. Great use of space with fun sculptures and food trucks as well as an outdoor beer garden. You wouldn't know you were in the city if you didn't look up at the skyscrapers. Great use of space where the "big dig" used to be.
