There
are many ways you can explore the Neponset River. You can canoe,
kayak or fish on its waters, to
get a water view of the river.
You can wade in the river
or scramble along its banks, looking for the creatures that swim or
float in the water or meander through the Neponset's water-side
brush.
You can walk or bike on
the Neponset Greenway Trail in Dorchester/Milton, the Ryan
Playground Trail in Mattapan, the Trail at Kennedy Playground in
Mattapan, the Burma road trail in Milton, or Pope John Paul II Park
in Dorchester.
In the wintertime, you
can snowshoe or cross-country ski along these trails. There are year-round outdoor programs for families and schools along the
Neponset! See what there is to
do.
