    A dirt path winds through a forest with trees displaying fall colors and fallen leaves on the ground.

    I come here all the time. Nicely maintained walking trails surrounding multiple fields and playgrounds. At the bottom there are some trails through the woods that lead to a cemetery with even more trails. Plenty of parking everywhere. It's my go-to place when I want to take a walk

    This is a great Park that was built on landfill. You get the most amazing views of greenery and the far distant land of Boston. There's wonderful soccer fields that children use from nearby schools and a little kiddy Park. And they also have place you can launch your canoe and wonderful woodsy walk area that is close to a cemetery after you walk the long path. I love the views and the walking path it is very Scenic. Good picnic space and ideal for all ages.

    Every weekend I say to myself "where do I feel like going this weekend", as I always make sure to go for a walk on the weekend (and sometimes on weekdays too). Normally my choice ends up being Millennium Park or Bird Park (my other favorite). Whenever I choose Millennium, it's always great. It's sort of weird to think that in a busy city like Boston (as this park is technically in Boston), there is space for a gigantic walking park like Millennium. Here at the park there are so many walking trails. Perfect spot to bring pets, and children, or have a picnic. My favorite of the trails is the large circle right at the parking lot, it's perfect for a few quick laps around. Other great trails that are more deserted are down by the bridge. I believe that one of them even leads to the Saw Mill Pkwy in Newton, sort of cool. Perfect place for a walk anytime, and definitely the best choice for Bostonians, if you don't want the Arnold Arboretum.

    I learned to swim here! :)

    . . . Not in Kansas Anymore This beautiful oasis in the middle of West Roxbury is a testament to the power of transformation. What was once a landfill is now a pristine 3+ mile stretch of paradise. There are bird feeders on outdated phone polls, huge fields for kids, playgrounds, flowers, trees and brogues a plenty. . .. Part of it is great pavement for rollerblading. It's also a great place to ride your bike, walk, run. People get together to have doggy play dates. My dogs were more the James Dean-type, although we did go a few times. There is also a separate part of the park for the dogs to swim. It's on the lower level-follow the wet dogs. We went to Millennium every day, barring a blinding snowstorm. They loved to go swimming in the "backwoods" cove in the summer. This one was very skittish, having been abused by her former people, but , with the help of her labrador retriever sis, eventually learned how to swim and loved it. On hot days, I went in with them. It was the summer it was so hot, we had a drought. The town puts on events and shows here, as well. I went to a fireworks celebration that was transcendental. If you do go here, and I highly suggest you do, watch out for turtles who have lost their way. They're very old, beautiful, and need to go back in the water. It's a rarity. They may be snappers, so be careful. There is an occasional snake, not of the poisonous kind; no worries. Be sure to take your camera if you can. The view of the sky here is phenomenal.

    A great park, but it is not an off-leash dog run. IT IS NOT LEGAL to let your dog off-leash.

There are plenty of benches for weary caregivers to rest while the kids run around and burn off that endless supply of energy. There are two play structures, both with slides and an array of climbing structures separated by a fence. One side for tots and one for older kids. There's a substantial set of swings (6 total - one for all ages). The playground is adjacent to a set of large baseball fields, tennis and basketball courts. There is no parking lot but I've never had trouble finding an on street space on beautiful LaGrange street. Its proximity to the plenty of shops and restaurants along Centre Street lend to making the visit to the playground a multi-purpose outing. I know how much effort it took to get the kids loaded up and out the door - so let's make the most of it! While it can get busy, it's never been so overwhelmingly crowded that my introverted personality couldn't handle it. I've always been very comfortable with the amount of kids and guardians. This is our favorite playground in the city so far, it has become our regular spot.
