Welcome
Western Greenway 5K
Walk or run the Western Greenway Trail in Beaver Brook North and Rock Meadow to benefit the Waltham Land Trust and Race Around WalthamThis fall, on Saturday October 5th, the Land Trust is partnering with the Race Around Waltham (RAW) series to offer a 5K trail run/walk on the Western Greenway. To accommodate all types of participants, walkers will depart after runners. Sign up the family for a brisk hike through woods, meadows and new forests. Celebrate the accomplishment afterwards with post-race picnic. Because the trail has rocks and roots, strollers and baby joggers will not be permitted.

What are the natural features which make a township handsome? A river, with its waterfalls and meadows, a lake, a hill, a cliff or individual rocks, a forest, and ancient trees standing singly. Such things are beautiful; they have a high use which dollars and cents never represent. If the inhabitants of a town were wise, they would seek to preserve these things, though at considerable expense; for such things educate more than any hired teachers or preachers, or at any present recognized system of school education. -- Henry David Thoreau |
