Your Experience

How a Boston newspaper columnist invented the Freedom Trail in March of 1951, why the painted red line you may already be standing on dates to 1958, and what the official trail walks past at every stop. 8 stops, about 2.7 km on foot, 1h15 at an easy pace. The route starts at Boston Common and ends at Copp's Hill Burying Ground. It is fully self-guided: no group, no guide to keep up with, and no need to arrive at a set time. Start whenever you like, pause for as long as you want, and pick it up again where you left off. Narrated stop by stop in English and Spanish, in your phone's browser, with a live GPS map of the route.
