Visiting Walden Woods

The Walden Woods Project is pleased to welcome groups and individuals throughout the year that are exploring Thoreau's Walden Woods.

 We offer a wide variety of guided interpretive walks, lectures, and public programs on an on-going basis, many in collaboration with the state DCR, Walden Pond State Reservation.  We also can provide any help you need in planning your self-guided explorations.  We are especially proud of the variety of stimulating professional development opportunities that we offer teachers.

The Walden Woods Project staff will help you get the most out of your visit to historic Walden Woods.
