All Persons Trail
We created this fully accessible self-guided nature trail so that everyone could experience the very special nature that thrives here at Boston Nature Center. By creating this sensory trail, we continue two legacies–supporting wildlife and habitat conservation in this resilient urban landscape and connecting people to nature.
The trail may be traveled in either direction, starting at the front or rear of the Boston Nature Center.
Distance
Approximately one mile long around the George Robert White Environmental Conservation Center and through the 67-acres.
Features
- Wide
- Primarily level
- Crushed stone path
- All narrated audio tour stops are clearly marked by three-foot tall signposts with the stop name and number in print and in Braille.
Print Guides
Individual copies of the trail map are available in printed or tactile formats. Copies of the printed or Braille guide are also available in the Boston Nature Center.
Audio Tour
There is an audio tour for our accessible trail. The tour is available in three versions: English, Spanish, and one version just for kids (available in English only.) All narrated stops along the trail are clearly marked by three-foot tall signposts with the stop name and number in print and in braille.
