Parks in Boston

Franklin Park

At over 500 acres, this is Boston's largest park, designed by Frederick Law Olmsted as the crowning jewel of the Emerald Necklace, with woodland trails, meadows, a golf course, and the historic Wilderness forest. It's also home to the Franklin Park Zoo, making it a full-day outing for families. Practical note: it's expansive and partly wooded, so the zoo and main loops are the easiest entry points for first-time visitors.
