This is one of my favorite trails in Massachusetts. It’s well paved, not monotonous and it functions well connecting different parts of Newburyport. Biggest disappoint is how short it is. If you’re looking for an enjoyable weekend ride with lunch or a coffee break thrown in this trail can’t be beat.
Clean path but unfortunately both sides of the trail are heavily saturated by invasive plants - Garlic Mustard (now in blossom) and Japanese Knotweed. Perhaps once lockdown is over there could be an organized effort to start eradicating all these plants?
awesome trail to work and train my dogs, only suggestion I have is trash barrels. There's only 1 in the middle. Should really have a handful or so spread out which would help keep it clean.
I used this trail to roller skate, it was pretty short but a nice straightforward skating path
Rode north from Boscawen to Highland Lake about 15 miles. Trail is in excellent shape. Very slight grade riding north such that you can hardly notice it. Ride south was faster as it was essentially downhill. Great day
Beautiful trail but very narrow making it very hard for bikes going in opposite directions to pass each other. Other negative are the railroad ties that you need to bike over in some places. Please be careful!
This is one of my family’s favorites as it was the first rail trial we ever did. The trail is all paved, pretty much flat throughout, and easily accessed. Apparently they are planning to add an additional few miles on the northern end by 2022. The only drawbacks are that it can get crowded, it can be buggy (it is near a lot of wetland), and of you like challenging trails it isn’t the best choice for you. Overall we love it
We went on this trail for the first time today and really enjoyed it! The ride is all asphalt, and not overly challenging. Some great views also of the Piscataqoug and Merrimack Rivers. It also can be used to connect to the Heritage Trail which is .9 miles. So if you do this one and that one together it is a full three miles each way. Best spot to park in behind the West Side Arena near the baseball field as it has a easier access to the trail. There are a few things to watch for. The street crossings can be a little tricky so be careful. Also there is not a ton of shade either so keep that in mind too.
Today my husband and I took the trail from Keene and went 6 miles before turning back just due to our own time constraints. The trail is used but not crowded. It is excellent for bikes BUT not skinny wheel bikes! Also the bridge is out in Keene so begin the trail at 110 Krif Rd, Keene, NH 03431 by the Keene State Athletic Field. There is parking and the trail is right there. We had a great time and will do it again in the future.
We hiked this entire unpaved trail today (4/29/2020). The entire thing is in great shape and is good for hiking and also both hybrid bikes and mountain bikes. It's impressive how many side hiking trails there are to explore off of it too (including sections of the Bay Circuit Trail). Also, it's VERY easy to connect this with the Minuteman Bikeway (paved) and/or the Reformatory Branch Trail (unpaved) if you are looking for more. Nice work on all the trails, Bedford!
Easy to bike on. Mostly flat or gentle slopes throughout. Many roads to cross along the way, crowded with people, not much to view.
