Irish Heritage Trail

The Irish Heritage Trail is a heritage trail in Boston, Massachusetts, was created in June 1994 as a way of highlighting the city's Irish history through its landmarks.

The trail contains 20 sites in Boston, Massachusetts, and Back Bay, and an additional 20 sites in Boston's neighborhoods.

The self-guided walk in Boston and Back Bay is approximately 3 miles. It starts at the Rose Kennedy Garden on Boston's waterfront and ends at Fenway Park in the Fens.

The Irish Heritage Trail was featured on the nightly New England show on WCVB.

In 2019, the Irish Echo newspaper in New York ran a story on the 25th anniversary of the Irish Heritage Trail.
