Did you know Medway has free outdoor exercise facilities? These exercise facilities fall under the guise of the Medway Trail System with its miles of trails for walking that pass through most areas of town. 

Our town is fortunate to have Open Space put aside specifically for the recreational needs of its residents. The flora and fauna along these trails are not only scenic but also provide ecological benefits  In addition, residents will be enjoy a horticultural and historical introduction to the area with descriptive tree name plates and kiosks. The best scenery is usually found from the viewing area from one of the bridges expanding over the wetlands. Benches and picnic facilities also grace the properties and there is parking available at most of the trailheads.  

The first trail ever noted was believed to be part of an old Indian Trail that ran from Medfield/Medway to Wrentham. 

We hope to provide a snapshot for each of the trails in future editions of the Millis & Medway Local Town Pages. In August, we will feature the High School Trail. 

To start exploring the trails today, visit https://medwayma.gov/departments/information-services/trails-maps/ where trail maps can be downloaded or printed for your walking pleasure.
