  • Come along with the Boston Park Rangers as we traverse the Muddy River through the Emerald Necklace. Our journey will begin at the headwaters of the Muddy River at the Jamaica Pond Boathouse and will continue through the Emerald Necklace, ending in the Back Bay Fens. Discover the groundbreaking vision that the designer of NYC's Central Park and the father of American landscape architecture, Frederick Law Olmsted, had for Boston's Park System while strolling through 4 different parks on this 4-mile walk. 

  • The Boston Park Rangers ask that participants bring water and comfortable walking shoes to make this tour an enjoyable experience. The tour is intended for ages 15 and up, but is open for all to join. We strongly encourage kids under 15 to be accompanied by an adult. 

  • For more information on this event and future events hosted by the Park Rangers, visit the Boston Park Rangers homepage.
