Burlington Mill Pond

The obvious walk is one around the lake, which takes over a hour, but is an easy walk.
The views of the lake vary from all sides, lots to see.
There are many trails, some well marked.
The wood around the lake are typical New England: mixes of pines and hardwoods.
Trails around the lake are wide and easy to walk.
A boulder careless dropped by a glacier and broken into pieces.
Dams at two ends of the lake give you great views of the water.
A single swan was paddling this day.
A lovely spot to walk or just sit and rest.
Look for the many side trails that branch away from the loop trail around the lake.
The level of the lake goes up and down with the rains, but views are still quite lovely when it is low.

This lake is the partial water supply for Burlington (along with MWRA water). So no swimming, etc, but the views and surrounding woods are wonderful.
