Newton Upper Falls Greenway

About the Trail

The Upper Falls Greenway is a stone dust, mile-plus linear park offering a safe, car-free trail for walking, jogging, bicycling and general recreation, with easy access to the commercial areas on adjacent Needham Street for shopping and commuting. 

The trail can be accessed from Easy Street, Elliot Street, Needham Street and Oak Street in Newton Upper Falls. Limited on-street parking is available on Chestnut Street adjacent to the Depot Coffee Shoppe. Be sure to obey any posted parking restrictions.

The Trail was officially opened in September of 2016. Occasionally, along the way, there are art installations.

We welcome volunteers to help with staffing booths, promotion, and other tasks. Drop us an email at info@baycolonyrailtrail.org and we’ll find a spot for you to contribute your time and talents.
