Nice little trail to wall and see trees and fall colors. The trail is mostly made up of rocks, and we saw several mountain bikes around.

Various, clearly marked trails taking you through beautiful forest. For all to enjoy with short, long, easy and slightly hilly paths...hiking, biking and guided tours all bring together one with nature. Easily accessible.

Awesome trails, only 2 area not maintained but still easy to get thru. Not too large, good place to get lost for a few hours biking. Cool technical off trails for all skill levels

Great fun biking around. Impossible to get completely lost, but easy to not know exactly where you are with all the trails.

Awesome place with a great wildlife diversity. Many vernal pools, swamps, the paintmines, birds, salamanders, snakes and much more! Ticks are there, but repellent will def help. Don’t spray areas that will directly come in contact with the environment.

Great Hike and Right by the highway. Although it is identified as Burlington Landlocked Forest, it is in fact in Lexington.

This place is quite and not a lot of people come here. My dog runs freely here. There was one woman who told me to put my dog on a leash because she got shared but I immediately told her I have a leash for you if you dont keep your mouth shut and if you keep dont think before you act I will put you to Petco training. Seriously, a dog off leash is a dangerous dog? If the dog was dangerous, then the owner would be dumb enough to do that which I doubt dog owner would even consider having their dog off leash if the dog was dangerous.

Great trails for running. For the first couple times I have gotten lost but it isnt too big to not make your way back to the start.

Review №21

Considering its limitations (hence the name), this place is an amazing trail paradise. And not just as a mtber. Always hear interesting birds, saw 2 deer on my last trip, and theres some great old half-biodegraded cars in the far north of the park that seem pretty old.But as a rider, yes, the trails are very nice. But it can get busy there. Relatively, anyway.

Reminds me a bit of Mine Falls Park in Nashua, its long narrow park, also close to highway, so there is a bit of road noise in areas. Its a nice relatively clean park, and its a great escape from the surrounding city.

Beautiful trails. Its easy to forget that it sits right next to a busy highway.

Review №28

This place is a nice, surprising treasure. It sits next to the highway and across from the Burlington Mall, but once you get inside the forest it feels a world away.

Great place for mountain biking, flowy trails with enough technical futures to keep you interested. Greater Boston chapter of NEMBA is one that build many trails and boardwalks and also also is keeping trails in great shape.

Review №44

A treasure trove of running and biking trails unsurpassed in the area. Keep an eye out for the wild turkeys and the speeding mountain bikers. In a tragic development, Lexington approved the construction of some cluster housing in a section of the forest off of Grove but you can still use most of the trail network. Hop on the trail right at 62/3 and Wilson Dam in Bedford and head all the way to Estabook Elementary in Lexington for a lovely ramble along Route 3.

Great place to come mountain biking. Easy trails, so anyone with a suitable bike could ride around. If you go on a weekend youll usually see a few cars in the parking lot. The place is fairly small, and has cell phone coverage throughout, so no worries of getting lost/stuck.

A decent hike, trails are moderately well-groomed though not terribly-well marked (one makes up for the other). Not too technical so our tween-age girls like it.
