0.8 miles of this trail now consists of crushed gravel
Great ride. First time on a gravel surface and found it pretty easy going with a few rough spots. It rained the night before and early morning, so I wasn’t sure what to expect. Trail was damp but no big puddles. I took in 28 miles of the 40 out and back. Will do it again and try to get the whole distance.
Lot's of stops along the way to enjoy the sites. It's a very well maintained small trail
I'd ridden this trail a couple years ago, doing it in small sections, and had found it to be a nice ride with a decent surface, quite reasonable for my older hybrid. I only did about 6 miles today, from Keene southward before turning back, and those couple of detours noted in another review are still in place - taking you out onto the road for short stretches likely to avoid power line work being done.
Rode from Avon, CT to Westfield, MA. Mass section in great shape. CT section is awful. Pavement is split, constant 'ka-thunk', pot holes not marked, just horrendous condition. Where is the CT DOT and our tax dollars? Stay away.

Other reviews are fair. Lots of starts and stops for a shorter trail, but also some nice lengths and well maintained. Being from the area, I knew what to expect. I had more fun dodging and beeping my horn at bunnies on my night ride, than I did going around children on my day ride. Nice either way.
Tough to do on a mountain bike, unless you're an expert. not maintained at all. I would say an ok hiking trail. But not all that scenic. Not what it's billed to be by a long shot.
This trail was OK. The part along the river and in downtown was scenic and it was paved all the way.
However, it goes along the highway for a while with just a chain link fence as separation, which is not enjoyable at all (east of the gap is not scenic). It also has a lot of tree roots creating speed bumps. Finally, the gap between the river and the rest is significant (& don't take what looks like the most direct route as Pratt & Whittney has a security gate for part, so you can't get through unless employed there).
Went north out of Keene on the trail, and was quickly in a lovely wooded area, then soon at a side trail to Stonewall Farm, where visitors are welcome to wander. The birds were singing happily! We did 6.5 miles out before turning around but there was plenty more trail to explore. If you are expecting a super flat trail and a packed surface this may not be your kind of fun. If you don’t mind dismounting for a rickety bridge, or adventuring on side trails, then check this trail Out ,
The surface is paved, and in excellent condition.
The trail is ever so slightly down hill from north to south.
Mostly shaded, and while not amazing scenery, it is a lovely trail. In spring, when sunny, watch to LOTS of turtles on the far bank of a swampy section near the cheshire reservoir (on the west side of the trail)!
