Local Walks & Hikes In The News

The Local Walks & Hikes (LWH) group has been featured in the Boston Globe, along with our very own AMC Boston Chapter Charles River MUD.  Also, Marc Hurwitz, LWH Committee member and leader, is a travel writer who often publishes articles about the special places in the Boston area, including trails in the geographic region covered by LWH.
