Cannabis and Fitness: Best Outdoor Activities and Trails in Boston

Cannabis

Want to go beyond your regular cannabis experience and get out of the house?? Why not choose a strain that encourages energy, inspiration, and sociability and set out on an outdoor adventure after visiting a Boston dispensary?

Boston is full of exciting opportunities to experience nature and history — if you know where to look.

Before you light up, remember that it’s not legal to smoke in public, and you can’t carry more than an ounce with you, including in edibles.

Besides, it’s considerate not to catch others in your smoke if they haven’t consented to smoking, too. Instead, take your hits at home before you leave, then catch a ride (cannabis tour bus, anyone?) to your destination of choice.

Here are some suggestions for inspiration.

Boston Outdoor Activities

Boston is filled with rich cultural history, from arts and sciences to architecture and more. If you want to stay within the lively center of the city, consider activities such as:

Franklin Park Zoo

Animals are always a hit, and Franklin Park Zoo has them in spades. Whether you’re a giraffe fan or prefer the big cats, plenty of unique and fascinating animals fill this 72-acre zoo park.

Strain suggestion: Lemon Cake OG for its Sativa-based energizing effect, which can make you curious and engaged.

Baseball Games

Are you a Red Sox fan? You don’t have to be to enjoy a local game! The energy of the crowd, the fun stadium food, and the excitement of competition can all be infectious if you’re looking to be social with friends.

Strain suggestion: Strawberry Lemonade for its uplifting effects that can make you giggly and excited about every at-bat — even if your team is losing.

Boston Common

While Boston Common is “just” a park, you’ll find a lot to love here. From historical monuments to picnics in summer and ice skating in winter, there’s something for everyone at the Common. Depending on when you choose to stop by, you might find carousel rides, Shakespeare performances, and more!

Strain suggestion: King Louis for its Indica-forward contemplative effects, which can help you relax and take in your environment.

New England Aquarium

If you’ve already decided to stop by the zoo, why not make it an entirely animal-focused day and check out the aquarium? Sea lions, turtles, penguins, and more await among the thousands of fish species swimming in both saltwater and freshwater tanks. There are even meet-and-greet opportunities with harbor seals!

Strain suggestion: Gelatti for its hybrid Indica relaxation with Sativa inspiration and creativity, helping you relish in the beauty and colors of the water and fish.

Boston Trails and Hikes

Boston offers plenty of opportunities for those who would rather get out of the city center and explore nature. Some of the most notable include:

The Freedom Trail

No trip through Boston would be complete without a visit to this iconic natural activity. This pathway of historic sights does stick around in the heart of Boston, but you’ll pass through plenty of parks and green areas, ending at the water to catch a glimpse of the USS Constitution.

Strain suggestion: Blue Dream for its inspiring effects, which can also offer relaxation without cutting your energy halfway through your journey.

Jamaica Pond

Those seeking more nature in their trip can take in the greenery during a hike around Jamaica Pond in Olmstead Park. You don’t have to go far from city amenities to find this trail, and it’s got multiple locations to stop and take in the view — including the richly colored wood ducks that often grace the pond.

Strain suggestion: Tropicana Cookies for its focusing effects that will keep you on the trail instead of distracted by the call of the nearby city.

World’s End

Just about 10 miles outside Boston sits this nature preserve full of miles of trails suitable for beginners. The shoreline is home to various bird species, and the saltwater marshes are great for photo ops with friends.

Strain suggestion: Willie Nelson for its terpenes that encourage talkative times with friends and leave you uplifted and inspired by the natural world around you.
