"A brief drive from the Orchard House is Walden Pond, made famous by Henry David Thoreauâs book, Walden; or, Life in the Woods. The non-fiction publication details the two years Thoreau spent living simply in the woods on Walden Pond and, as a body of work, cemented Thoreauâs place in the transcendentalism movement. Although the cabin where Thoreau lived was torn down, you can walk to the site where it once stood. Best of all, visitors may also swim in the pond or walk on the trails to see the world through the same lens as the literary legend. The serenity of this famous Massachusetts pond inspired Henry David Thoreau to pen his iconic book âWalden,â an ode to the simplicity of living in nature. Travelers will still find much of that same serenity a century-and-a-half later. Walden Pond feels worlds away from the hustle and bustle of modern-day life, despite being just a 30-minute drive from Boston. Donât let the name fool you, this âpondâ is more than 60 acres in size. Guests will find all the traditional recreational activities available at their fingertips. Back on land, a walking path encircling the pond allows visitors to explore the shoreline and surrounding forest on foot. What separates Walden Pond from other popular lake destinations is its unique place in American and literary history. Walden Pond is located in Concord, site of the first Revolutionary War conflict. Guests can learn about the townâs historical importance with stops at local museums, parks and memorial sites. Decades after the war, several notable authors called Concord home. This included Thoreauâs friend Ralph Waldo Emerson, whose house is open to the public. Just north of the pond sits Louisa May Alcottâs Orchard House, where she wrote âLittle Women.â"
