Hidden Gem: Take a Stroll Through Watertown's Hidden Forest

Despite being tucked between residential neighborhoods, a walk through Whitney Hill can take you away from the hustle-bustle of Watertown Square.

The park shows up on Google Maps, but there are no signs to mark the beginning of the park. Paths stretch through the trees and provide a place for people to take a quiet stroll or give their dogs some exercise.

On the south end of the park, the paths start at the end of Marion Road and where Oliver and Marshall streets come together in a "U." From the north, the path comes out on Marlboro Terrace, a small street off Springfield Street.
