Wonderful rugged park in Malden. It is so Easy to get into the trails and I love walking on the Ridgeline. So many beautiful views!
Definitely one of the most pleasant hiking places with a decent-sized forest and a magnificent view
Lovely place to come and walk. Many miles of trails. Most dogs are well behaved, but some are not. People are not great at keeping their dogs leashed on the trails. Cyclists are supposed to be restricted to certain trails but I've seen several on the Skyline Trail.
Beautiful view with either a steep or long hike depending on which way you climb up.
Pretty nice, I wish there was less car noise, but it's reasonably accessible from Cambridge/Somerville by bike which I appreciate.
Generally a great spot for a hike. Trail heads are accessible with a short walk from the T. Most trails are pretty flat and easy to follow making it family and dog friendly. I went along the Cross Fells trail and really enjoyed the foliage, though it does cross three reasonably busy roads so use caution at those intersections. Beyond that the reservoirs and trees are beautiful and a nice change of pace when getting away from Boston’s urban center.
Very pleasant walk. They offer kayak or canoe rental. I didn't see a restroom. The house that looked to have information and possibly a restroom was locked (mid day weekday). We enjoyed the walk very much.
A great spot for a light to medium hike, suitable for people who don't usually hike. It has more "walking" areas, almost flat, going by the water, as well as little hills, and even tiny "cliffs" to climb on. Major bonus: very close to the city.
It's generally dog-friendly, but there are a few spots with broken glass — for which I hope whoever left it there gets the karma they deserve
