Boston National Historical Park

Explore historic Boston on the Freedom Trail, a 2.5 mile walking trail stretching from the Boston Common to Bunker Hill in Charlestown.

Learn the stories of midnight riders, tumultuous debates and riots, and the revolutionary heritage that started in this nation. You can join a ranger for a guided tour, climb the 294 stairs of the Bunker Hill monument for a sweeping view of the city, or participate in a heated debate in the Great Hall of Faneuil Hall.

Connecting 16 colonial, Revolutionary and National Park Service sites, the Trail can be enjoyed in a day, a weekend, or even spread out over a week.
