Upper Charles Trail

lots of street crossings

September, 2025 by chleary11

This is a good trail, but if you start in Milford and do the entire checkmark there are a lot of street crossings. The pretty parts of the trail are nice and shady and wooded, but there is a fair amount of commercial areas that you have to get through. It’s nice and flat and there are lots of parking areas along the way. My gps did not take me to a parking lot but when I put the trail into AllTrails I got accurate directions.

Province Lands Bike Trail

perfect!

September, 2025 by chleary11

Did this in August. The trails are well kept, a bit challenging but the views are incredible! You can ride right into ptown and avoid parking hassles and expense.

Bruce Freeman Rail Trail

Great ride!!!

Beautiful!

Old Eastern Marsh Trail

Beautiful short ride

September, 2025 by acetic.fiat.2m

This section was our continuation from the Ghost Trail. This is a short ride but well worth it. Clean trail, no weeds covering the path and most importantly no surprise potholes. Just a beautiful peaceful shaded ride. When my sister and I reached the northern end we actually decided to go to lunch at Marquis’ Lobster Pool. After lunch we rode back to the trail and headed towards Newburyport. There are no signs from the Ghost Trail pointing you towards that direction.

Salisbury Point Ghost Trail

Beautiful bike ride!

September, 2025 by acetic.fiat.2m

This route was a continuation from Amesbury’s River Walk Trail which was a bit hard to find because there is no signage pointing you in the right direction. As I continued on it proved to be a well groomed path/ride. Road was in very good condition and weed control was well taken care of. This trail started out paved then turned into well packed crushed stone/dirt. A mountain bike would work well here but it was very manageable with a road bike as well. Beautiful ride through the woods. We continued on to the Ghost Trail from here.

Amesbury Riverwalk

Amesbury trail needs a bit of attention

September, 2025 by acetic.fiat.2m

Parked in the parking lot on Water St. There are no signs pointing you towards the start of the walking/bike path. Once I found it I was on my way. Then the path went downhill in a bad way. Overgrown weeds and thorns in the paths way and not to mention all those little pot holes and low lying branches. Some areas it was hard to stay on your side of the yellow line. Very poor path maintenance until you get to the back of Stop & Shop. Then again you’re on your own to find the continuation of the route. No signs at all pointing you in the right direction. What a shame. It could’ve been a very enjoyable ride. Hope they clean the area soon.

Rockingham Recreational Rail Trail (Portsmouth Branch)

Worth every pedal

September, 2025 by emailforpablo

From Massabesic Lake parking lot to Raymond and back. Beautiful ride. Keep an eye on rocks on the trail. Otherwise, well marked and excellent ride in nature to pretty much all to yourself. Enjoy!

A Delightful Ride on The Norwottuck Section

August, 2025 by gettinlate

June 6th 2025
The Mrs and I rode this beautiful trail from North Hampton to just short of Belchertown, and back.
The weather was great and the trail is mostly shaded, so the ride was superb.
I'd have no objection to doing it again.

Salem Bike-Ped Corridor

Nice Trail

1st time we went south to combine with Methuen trail, some crossing lights were not working, a part of trail is hard packed dirt so a wider tire made it easier
