The majority of this walkway is on private property owned by the Cummings Center. An easy place to begin the loop is at the McKeown School, located on Balch Street. Visitors may park in this parking lot and take the pathway with the Shoe Pond to the right. This pathway curves around the pond and eventually crosses over a small bridge. Once over the bridge, the visitor must climb a set of stairs, which will bring him to McKay Street. The walkway turns right, keeping the pond to your right.
This urban open space area provides visitors with a semi-challenging hike with exceptional views of the convergence of the Bass, Danvers and North Rivers.
The Bass River Walkway runs from the commercial property on the corner of Green and Elliott Streets, behind the White Hen Pantry and the Starbucks Café. The pathway follows the sidewalk along Elliott Street until the official pathway picks up on the McDonald’s property. The path goes behind the Stop and Shop and the Bass Haven Yacht Club. The end point is on McPherson Drive. The majority of the walkway faces the Bass River, which is beautiful during the high tide. There are benches and places to rest along the majority of the route. Parts of the path are also shaded.
Bald Hill is the hub of Centerville. Major roads leading to the base of the hill bring together social, business and residential areas; it was this geographical and social nexus that gave this Beverly neighborhood its name. In the late 17th century, Bald Hill had little growth covering its rocky prominence, hence its name. Today, a mix of pine and hemlock cover the site rendering its name inaccurate.
Also known as Brown Park.This park is heavily-utilized during the Little League baseball season, but also provides other recreational opportunities throughout the year. Vittori Park is located on the corner of two busy streets, so safety can be a concern.
