The second largest municipal park in the United States is a 2,200 acre municipal forest park located in Lynn, Massachusetts. The Woods offers over 30 miles of scenic trails for hiking, running, horseback riding, mountain biking (not allowed during the winter), cross-country skiing, nature walks, outdoor concerts, picnics, rose garden weddings, and horticultural activities. Three active reservoirs provide pretty pond-like scenery among natural forestland.
