Framingham is rapidly emerging as the top trail destination in MetroWest. Framingham is at the intersection of multiple regional trail networks. With our diverse trail system spanning from the Cochituate Rail Trail to the Arthur Morency Woods, and future connections to the Bruce Freeman Rail Trail and East Coast Greenway, Framingham offers many outdoor recreation and alternative transportation opportunities.
