It’s used by many Boston-area commuters to move between T connections, but it’s also a great way to experience the beauty of towns like Bedford, Lexington, and Arlington.

The bikeway starts at South Road in Arlington and connects to the Reformatory Branch Rail Trail. If you stick to the path the whole way, you’ll wind up at Alewife Station in Cambridge.

You’ll also travel past Spy Pond and weave your way beneath shady, leafy trees. The path is fully paved and usually at least 8 feet wide with a gentle grade, so it’s stroller- and wheelchair-accessible.
