About this

The Freedom Trail is a 2.5-mile walking route through downtown Boston that passes 16 historic sites connected to the American Revolution, including the Boston Common, Paul Revere’s House, the Old North Church, and the Bunker Hill Monument. Following the marked red-brick path lets visitors see the city’s colonial buildings and learn about key events from the 1770s in the order they occurred. The trail is mostly flat, open year-round, and suitable for most fitness levels, though some sites charge small admission fees.
