Mary Cummings Park is a 210 acre public park which was given in trust to the City of Boston by Mary Cummings for the purpose of keeping the land forever open as a public pleasure ground. It offers fields, forests, trails, wetlands, and a variety of wildlife habitats for public enjoyment.

The park is located just inside Route 128/95 in Burlington and Woburn. It is ideal for many activities, including hiking, birding, nature walks, running, geocaching, picnics, photography, snowshoeing, cross country skiing, model airplane flying, and much more.
