Back Bay : Walden Pond

No one has rated this yet.

Rate it

This is where Thoreau wrote 'On Walden Pond', and so became the first modern environmentalist. You can walk around the Pond itself in less than an hour, and there isn't a great deal to see. But the feeling of being where this all began is magical. You should combine this with a few other locations in wonderful Concord.

For those not familiar with Thoreau, he was also the key inspiration for the non-violent protest movements of Gandhi, and Martin Luther King. And much more besides.
