What is the Bay Circuit Trail & Greenway?

The BCT is a 230+ mile multi-use trail outside of Boston where you can walk, hike, ride, ski, and get some fresh air. The trail corridor is T-accessible and traverses Eastern Massachusetts’s beautiful natural landscapes, passing through 38 towns, with trail connections to many more.
