Acton Arboretum is a beautiful garden with walking paths located on Taylor Road in Acton. Make sure you check out the map before going.
We visited the Arboretum in late October when there was not much in bloom, but it is still a beautiful area to explore. There are walking paths winding around the gardens with benches to sit and relax if you wish.
If you want a longer walk there are a few paths. We walked the Bog Loop which meanders through the woods and crossed boardwalks over a bog.
It was not a long walk around the trails and gardens, but we were able to get almost 2 miles in. This would be a perfect place to bring a picnic and enjoy the beautiful gardens and natures trails.
Since you are in the area I highly recommend checking out deCordova Sculpture Park and Museum in Lincoln.
