Jamaica Pond
Highlight • Lake
The lake is beautifully framed by mature trees and even has a boathouse for rowers and sailors. The entire approach to the arboretum is so picturesque that you almost forget you're in the middle of a big city.

Leverett Pond
Highlight • Lake
Jamaica Pond's little brother. Smaller, but much more natural, nestled in the middle of the forest, framed by beautiful bike paths. It's a pleasure to cycle here...
