A 970-acre National Park Service unit stretching across Lincoln, Concord and Lexington along the Battle Road of April 19, 1775, with the Minute Man Visitor Center marking the park's eastern, Lincoln-side entrance on North Great Road.
What to expect
Trails
The Battle Road Trail, a roughly 5-mile multi-use path tracing the 1775 route, runs through the park; surface is a mix of paved and natural tread.
Dogs
Leashed dogs (6 ft maximum) are allowed on trails; owners must carry current tags and pick up waste. This is an NPS rule, not Lincoln's conservation-land leash rule.
