Fall Freedom Trail Hike

Come join us for a fun urban barefoot hike along Boston's historic Freedom Trail. We'll follow the trail through the streets of Boston, the North End, and over to Charlestown. We will return along the trail back to our starting point (or take the shortcut if we're tired). Interesting urban textures include old worn brick, cobblestone, ancient granite slab sidewalks, and two passes over the Charlestown Bridge (400 feet of steel grating). The hike will be 2 to 3 miles long depending on how far the group would like to go. We could stop for lunch again like we did last time, if there is interest.

We'll meet on Beacon St, right in front of the Statehouse, gathering around the brass Freedom Trail marker on the sidewalk. Everyone should bring water. All are welcome (new barefooters and those not sure of their distance ability should bring backup shoes). Street parking is free on Sunday but be sure to carefully read the signs (resident parking only, etc). There is an underground parking garage below the Common (about 12 dollars to park). Or, you can take the T to Park Street station.
