KENNEDY PARK
One of the most
popular walking spots in Fall River is Kennedy Park in the City's South End.
Located directly in front of the St. Anne Shrine and extending nearly to the
Taunton River, the park offers a wide sidewalk and moderate slopes. Because
of its popularity, there are nearly always walkers in the park, thus
increasing safety. Lighting is adequate for most of the path for evening
walks.A full walk
around the park is nearly a mile and a half (225 calories for a 200 pound
person). A flatter and more moderate course around the upper park is only
3/4 of a mile (113 calories for a 200 pound person).

Starting in the
summer of 2010, a Fall River Walks bulletin board will be located in the Park Department Office,
opposite the north end of S. Beach Street. Walkers can record their walks,
meet other walkers and get information about other walking locations
throughout the city. |
