This is a Sudbury Valley Trustee trail.http://www.sudburyvalleytrustees.org/maps?q=node/161
Trying to find the bridge connecting the halves of Delaney. There's nothing where the guide shows it, and the other bridge has been broken for a LONG time.
Very nice hike, particularly if you have kids. A variety of terrain and nice view of the lake.
Excellent for bird watching. Lots of herons' nests by the river.
Assabet River (Return Trip: From Pine Street to Eggrock)
West Concord, Massachusetts, United States
4.4 miles

The return trip make me really want to call Assabet river the "Turtle's Heaven". There are so many painted turtle taking sun bath on the fallen trees in this quiet morning summer. Do they have a job to do? Or the lingering effects of 2008 financal crsis still here? Or all "man" in turtle's world basically only enjoy life regardless how old they are.
This is the 1st trip on Assabet River, the 2nd early morning trip this summer. It is hard to believe the morning temperature is only 55F and chilly with T-shirt and short only. Most Assabet river in this part of trip is about 20-30 yards wide and have a few rapid spots during the trip.
This is an easy walk to take with your dog complete with trails, fields, and a pond for swimming. Please help keep Delaney Park clean and pick up after your dog.
