Charles River Peninsula

The Charles River Peninsula is a 30 acre nature preserve in Needham, Massachusetts owned and managed by the Trustees of Reservations. The Charles River turns nearly 180 degrees, creating the peninsula. A 20 acre field on the peninsula was farmed for roughly a century. The original acreage was given in 1960; additional land was given in 1994.

The property includes a loop hiking trail and a boat launch.
