I grew up on South Border Rd in Winchester, so I feel a great deal of nostalgia when being in the fells and thus the fate of 5 stars is inevitable for me. Having spent far too many hours wandering...

As a former cross country runner who went to school in NH, I find the Boston greenspace and trails to be lackluster. Our shores ridden with oilly rainbow puddles and foam. Our dirt trails littered...

Middlesex Fells Reservation is located right off of Interstate 93, exit 33, just a stones throw from Boston. The main entrance is the best to use as it has the most parking and a trail map with other...

I love going to the Fells. Those of us who live in the greater Boston area are lucky to have it so close by. So what if it's bisected by a major highway? Just pretend that the all-pervading...
