About this walk

A forward-looking commuter college with a net-zero campus building, North Shore sits in Danvers — colonial Salem Village, where the 1692 witch trials began and are still memorialized.

A campus is an argument in brick about what education is for. Danvers has a long-running one. Five stops over 4.1 miles, about two hours of walking. The story for each stop plays as you arrive, so nothing has to be looked up and nobody has to be followed.

Danvers has four 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.
