Boston Park Rangers, Urban Wilds staff, and Parks employees will provide formal and informal discussions or tours during the hikes. Some hikes may be more focused on taking a walk in the park, while others may be more informational.

Description: Tour the overlook and ruins in Franklin Park. The tour will highlight historical features of Franklin Park which will allow the audience to leave with a better historical understanding of what remains. Tours vary in length from 1 mile up to 3-4 miles. Depending on the length, they can last from 30 minutes up to 1.5 hours. Starting and ending location will be behind the zoo along Pierpont Rd near the softball field.  Restrooms and drinking water may or may not be available, come prepared with whatever you will need for the walk or hike.
