Most city parks have good trails, but Rock Meadows has it all. Pathways and trails that navigate swamp, ridges, hills, riverbeds, forests and meadows. There is also a pitoresque Victory Gardens by one of the entrances.

We love hiking here as a family. What a gorgeous piece of land.

I love taking my dog on walks here! It’s so beautiful and the trail usually isn’t too crowded.

Fascinating area. Given the layers of History behind it. Although, I wish it had more In Depth history divulged. And I wish that historical significance were maintained more properly. There were two old buildings near the lot, unfortunately Loser vandals got to one of them all too often, and the city chose to demolish rather than have a better up keep.

Great for a casual walk or a bike ride. Nice community garden and swings!

Beautiful park adjoining 2 others, with plenty of parking and hilly wooded or flat meadow trails. Warning: our dog was covered in ticks after the latest visit.

Beautiful community garden and apiary. Dusk hits the large field beautifully. Great for a quick local walk. Some mountain biking but doesnt interrupt the main walking paths.

Great for walking and hiking. I love going for prayer walks here! Definetly bring a mask because it can be crowded on some days.

Nice place to take a walk, have a picnic or ride a mountain bike (easy trails, nothing too demanding). There is also a swing for when you bring kids.

I was looking for a place to walk in nature and this park is great for snow shoes and cross country in the winter, not so much for walking. The only path that you can find are the ones made by the above. Beautiful park parking is minimal.

Broad open trails mixed use. Gorgeous blooms in the meadow.

Well-maintained trails, quiet, easy hike.

Excellent, well hidden sanctuary in the midst of suburbia!

Fantastic place to take a walk, great trails and connected to Beaver Brook which is nice

Nice and cool place to walk

A genuinely lovely place thats been well maintained by the people who care for the area, living in the area.

Beautiful walking area

Beautiful, rolling hills of grass and trees, wildlife and gardens to see. A wildlife nesting area - leash your dogs.

Big Open Space, great place to walk with Animals, garden space, exercise.

Easy terrain, beautiful meadows perfect in any season, and lots of little tucked away spots perfect for a picnic or just to sit and enjoy the day.

Love it. Any time of year. A wonderful gift of open space in Belmont.

It was great! The unicorns were very nice and the llamas never spit.

Nice place, the biking has seriously increased and an be annoying in certain days. But other than that it is a really clean and fun place for a walk.

Super impressive garden plots and beautiful untouched fields!

Awesome trails that are well maintained!

Quiet and relaxed during the week. Great place for dogs on leashes, children, nature lovers. Busy on weekends, filled with mountain bike racers and runners. Towns Conservation Commission keeps it in great shape.

Such a wonderful area, but beware of ticks-- there are so many!!

Great time of year to take a walk / run through the meadow and enjoy the gardens. Friendly environment.

Rock Meadow is a well hidden gem of a natural park between Belmont and Waltham. It offers several trails in the woods where you feel miles away from civilization. Theres varied terrain and you can pick flat or hilly trails, which attracts walkers, runners, and mountain bikers. Enjoy it and dont forget your bug spray in the summer!

Yes I really appreciate it and am going to be back.

Good for a quick walk or run. Nice wildflowers.

Great walking path through a beautiful meadow. Trails are well maintained and connect to the larger Beaver Brook Reservation. The trails are relatively flat so theyre good for families with kids and dogs. Good for walking/hiking, trail running, and biking (non-motorized). You can also connect to the trails at Lone Tree Hill by crossing over Mill Street. This place is a nice escape to nature very close to the city.

Good for light hard tail/cross training.

This is my go to place for Mt and cross bikes (and running). The area is a bit small but it has easy access to other trail networks. You can find easy trails or more challenging technical trails.

Lovely wide open green meadow that serves as an entrance to the Beaverbrook reservation. Dog friendly. Beware of ticks in the warm months.

Great place

Big place, lots of trails so close to Boston.

Great hiking and mountain biking

Wonderful tiny community gardens; beautiful Rock Meadow location --- lots of trails for walking, running and biking.

Western Greenway trail is beautiful. 11 mile journey to stonehurst estate and back. Good for mountain biking, great for running.

Beautiful meadows and woods. gorgeous sprawling community gardens

Great space for walks. Theres a pretty community farm area which is always nice to stroll through.

Community garden and public park with trails.

Large, slightly hilly meadow. Some woods, stream, trails. Adjacent to two other conservation areas with trails. Good place for hiking, running, cross country skiing.

Too many mountain bikers. Rock Meadow used to be a quiet, peaceful place to enjoy wildlife and birds, but is getting over-run with bicyclist who are destroying the tranquillity that the meadow once had.

A good variety of flat trails, open meadows, and tree cover (birch, oak, pine). Coming here for 50 years, never bores me.

Great spot for a run or walk w the pup.

Close encounter with a big deer made us feel like outside of civilization.

Great trails for walking, running or mountain biking.

Nice open space to walk your dogs.

If you’re a photographer; this is a hotspot!!

Great place for a walk and to see the seasons.

Very nice

Nice, open area. Unfortunately, theres also a lot of broken glass lying around.

Love this place, good for photograph.

Beautiful nature close to town

Magical

Wow

Fun

Pleasure

Great for biking around

Quiet walks in the woods in a built up area but watch out for broken glass on the trails.

It was a good place to go mountain biking

Nice place for a walk and it can get crowded. Good access to the Western Greenway which has good urban mountain biking.

Great place for a hike, bike ride or dog walk
