Explore the Great Brook Farm State Park on over 20 miles of recreation trails. The trails throughout the park are perfect for hiking, biking, and horseback riding, and in the winter they provide the perfect path for skiing. Along with plenty of ways to stretch your legs and enjoy nature, the park offers a look at what the classic eastern Massachusetts agricultural landscape is like.
If you'd rather have your nose stuck in a book than do anything else, then the Boston Book Festival is an event just for you – but you'll have to put down what you're reading to get there. The festival features live book readings, lectures and open discussions with professional authors, and of course, books! Food and fun are also a part of the event so count yourself in on the Boston Book Festival.
