Outdoor Fun Guide for Boston Families
One of the things we love most about Boston is that the city and surrounding towns are blessed with lots of green spaces. Many of our favorite places in the city are urban oases where families can explore nature and get plenty of fresh air and exercise!
From hiking and biking trails to beaches and barnyards, it's all here in this guide to outdoor family fun for Boston families.
