Blue Heron Trail Segment Maps (under construction)

The 2026 edition of the Newton Conservators Trail Guide has an 18′ x 24″ fold-out sheet. On one side is a list of seven Long Walks that cross multiple open space sites. The other side shows the routes of the aqueduct trails and the Blue Heron Trail.

These maps are large enough scale that they should be useful to walkers.  But they don’t have as much detail as would be possible on larger-scale maps.

This page, now under construction, will have links to a set of individual maps of segments of the trail that can be viewed on a smartphone or printed for use in the field.

Another option is to view the trail using the City of Newton Trail Map on the Avenza cellphone app.  This interactive map lets you zoom in to see detailed trail information.
