Some of the family-friendly activities will include: exploring the forests, fields, rocks and hills of Stonehurst, the surrounding Storer Conservation Lands, and the new Western Greenway. Attendees may choose one of several guided walks or go “questing” with one of Stonehurst’s new self-guided treasure hunts: the Quest of Giants, the Quest of Ruins, or the Quest of Nooks and Crannies.

Other kids’ activities led by Healthy Waltham and the Waltham YMCA will be offered, as well as tours of the interior of Stonehurst. “Yoga Energizers” classes will be led by TriYogaBoston.

There are many locations around Stonehurst that are perfect for picnicking, so participants are invited to bring a picnic lunch. Sturdy shoes and water bottles are also recommended. Healthy snacks will be provided by Hannaford Supermarkets. Free transportation will be available on the Waltham City Trolley. Waltham Walks at Stonehurst is part of Historic Waltham Month, a city-wide community celebration.
