Summary

Breakheart is a beautiful green space in an area (Saugus) that’s not always known for its natural beauty. This is a 5.3-mile loop with 590’ of elevation gain. We will meet at the Breakheart Reservation Visitor Center at 298 Forest St, Saugus, MA 01906. If there’s interest, we can grab lunch afterward. Prince Pizza is close, although, to my great sadness, they no longer have a pizza bar.
