WOODS HOLE — To take a walk in is to take a walk on the edge — not only the edge of land and sea, but also on the boundary where threats associated with climate change come up against a community determined to adapt.

It's doing this through a newly created, self-guided walking tour, with stops at the village's most vulnerable spots.

Developed by the working group, the tour has 12 stops, including Stoney Beach, Woods Hole Park, the Coast Guard station, the 's Iselin Marine Facility, the Marine Biological Laboratory’s Lillie Laboratory, and the , operated by .

During a recent demonstration of the app that guides visitors on the tour, Joe Famely, climate and sustainability team lead at the , pointed out numbered stanchions that identify each stop and correspond to the tour map. Each includes a QR code for downloading the app.
