Lowell National Historical Park

Special Event

  • Free

Together with their humans, Bark Rangers are welcome to join us for a guided walk.  This free Ranger-lead program begins at the Lowell National Historical Park Visitor Center (246 Market Street) and will last approximately 90 minutes. Bark Ranger walks are suited for well-behaved dogs on leashes of 6 feet or less (no retractable leashes).  

During Bark Ranger programs, pets and people walk at a leisurely pace, learning about Lowell and its history as they go.  Bark Rangers and their humans are encouraged to act as responsible stewards for our public lands by following the National Park Service B.A.R.K. Ranger rules: Bag your poop, Always use a leash, Respect wildlife, and Know where you can go.  

Special note: Those without pets are always welcome to join us on these walks.
