We love this place! There's so many types of wildlife. Last time there we even saw a juvenile bald eagle.

Nice walking path with lots to explore and observe. Plenty of muskrats and birds to see as well as small planes landing and taking off nearby. The path can be muddy at times so waterproof shoes are good to have.

A hidden gem. Beautiful little nature preserve smack in the middle of a suburban neighborhood. Gets very crowded on weekends... Go early! They need to fix the sign by the Concord River... It's incorrectly labeled as the Assabet!!

This National Wildlife Refuge Park is a beautiful and hidden gem in Concord. Trails, easily walkable, lead around gorgeous smaller and larger ponds, where one can observe water wildlife in abundance. There is a parking lot by the entrance of the park with limited (about 20?) parking spaces. The entrance to the parking space is very difficult to spot off the neighborhood road, and poorly marked. Look for it on a good map.

You always see something different everytime you go, whether you drive or paddle up the river.

Great place for a walk with a few different trek options. The watchtower gives a nice view of the wetlands. The highlight is definitely the view of thousands of lotus flowers in the summer! Parking is limited so pick a quieter day or time.

Beautiful wetlands. Nice alternative to Walden Pond for a walk.

Kids love this place. We saw many birds, dragonflies, water snake, frog and mink? Or weesles? We enjoyed all the nature and animals.
