About this walk

Follow the river system that shaped Concord, from a wildlife refuge to a working canoe launch

Some of the best of Concord is not a building at all. Five stops over 3.9 miles, about 28 minutes of driving. The story for each stop plays as you arrive, so nothing has to be looked up and nobody has to be followed.

Concord has five MassRoam tours and no two cover the same ground. It works as well at eight in the morning as it does at dusk. Stop for coffee, pick it back up.
