Factoid: This gateway to Cape Cod offers 14 miles of paved surfaces for walking, jogging,
bicycling, fishing and hiking. Families come from far and wide to get a close-up view
of the continuous parade of ocean-going vessels traversing the widest sea-level canal in
the world. Peace and quiet are easily found on the numerous sitting benches under the
trees. For up-to-date information, call (508) 759-4431.
