The Bay Circuit Trail & Mystic Link Trail Project!

Learn about a 230 mile trail that arcs around the city of Boston from Newburyport to Kingston.

The Bay Circuit Trail (BCT) provides access to communities like Reading to parks and open spaces close to where you live and work. Learn how to walk, bike, and ski this trail that was nearly 100 years in the making. And learn about a new recreational trail project even closer to "your own back yard": The Mystic Link!. When complete it will be only minutes away by both private and public transportation.
