East Longmeadow
Heritage Park
Date visited: 8/18/2023
We've been taking it easy this week. Lexi has had some back issues, but she was doing much better today, so we went for a short walk at this park. We had actually visited this park five years ago. It was very overgrown and didn't look that well maintained then, but it seems much nicer now. You can tell Lexi was feeling better. At one point, she was stalking the ducks in the pond! We circled the pond using the short trail, the grassy area, and the sidewalk along Route 83. The park was wet today. There were thunderstorms in the area early this morning. We were here in the evening, so I was surprised that parts of the park were flooded. We were able to mostly navigate around the wet areas, and walked about a mile here.

Trailway
Date visited: 10/2/2020
I drove by this multi-use trail daily on my way to and from work for years, and didn't even know it was there. This paved path runs behind the businesses on Shaker Rd in East Longmeadow. It's your standard rail-trail. There are plans to expand it north and south along the railroad path. This is the same railway that passes south through Enfield, East Windsor, South Windsor and East Hartford. I would love the trail to be extended south along this path, but the railway still seems to be in use in some of those towns.
