There is so much more than the loop around Longfellow Pond! The Town Forest is the largest reservation in Wellesley and supports a wide variety of wildlife and birds in a natural environment. Walk along the Longfellow Pond shoreline and climb to the top of a spectacular high esker deposited by glaciers and then back at the pond, view the summer residence of Chief Maugus and his Algonquin tribe.
