Cutler Park Reservation
This 600-acre park protects the largest freshwater marsh on the middle Charles River. This park is a great spot for birdwatchers, and it also features eskers, or riverbeds formed inside a glacier; drumlins, long hills formed by glaciers; and Kendrick pond.

The Charles River Greenway is an 4-mile path along the river. The trail also connects with the Charles River Pathway in Cambridge and Boston. Wildlife abound in the lake district in Auburndale, MA. See black-crowned night heron, muskrats, snapping turtles, and more.
