Rode a portion from Milldale north to Southington. All paved in fairly decent shape. A few bumps but no broken pavement. At the point in Southington the trail just ends with no information as to where to go. No signs or arrows. The trail picks up somewhere a few miles away but I couldn’t find out how to get there. On the portion I rode it was flat and easy, but not much to see other than woods and backs of buildings.
.With a mix of cinders , gravel , dirt & pavement this makes for a nice interesting ride . Along the way in High Falls make a left and visit the D+H canal museum its about a mile down the road . Once you venture a mile and half through a grass area the trail stops however pedal straight out on to Lucas tpk & make left onto 209 then left on main & right on scenic you will then pick up the trail to accord
Was visiting the area and am so happy I got my gravel bike out to do this trail. As others have mentioned, it is very, very well maintained and quite smooth, enabling fast riding (I rode the entire trail as listed). As a former rail, this trail has nice and gradual elevation changes and has cool features like the tunnels and bridges. I'd highly recommend and hope to be back for another spin soon.
Had a great evening bike ride out at the Windsor Locks Canal trail earlier this month (Aug, '25). The trail is paved, and as others have mentioned, it is not super smooth in some areas where the tree roots are pushing the asphalt up but can be navigated pretty easily. I was riding my gravel bike setup with 42mm tires and was able to go quite fast - averaging 15mph on the ride so it really was not that beat up / bad.
The scenery on the river is very nice, and the canal on the other side was also fun - lots of wildlife to see. Would recommend if in the area!
Rode the entire Farmington Canal Heritage Trail as part of a 2 day ride from Northampton to New Haven. What a fabulous experience! So much variety and New England splendor packed into one journey. It was very interesting to see how each of the towns maintained the trail differently. Everything from the paving to the signage changed as you moved from one village to the next. What an amazing treasure!
Short for bike, nice views, benches and even a real train.
Yes Walkway is wonderful, just one problem Cyclist Courtesy.
Have rode and seen a lot of cycling after 60 years, but never the lack of cycle courtesy that takes place on Walkway. Cyclist not letting one know that one is passing on left, or better yet on right, speeding, limit is10 mph. This is not just happing to slower cyclist but also when passing pedestrians. This also applies to the new E Bike presidents.

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.
Settle grade difference between start to finish. All paved smooth.No bugs.Crowded with walkers, skaters, and bikers.Windy in the afternoon.
This is a great paved trail that connects New Paltz to the Walkway Over the Hudson and then to the Dutchess County Rail Trail. Done together, you can ride for well over 60 miles if you want. The Hampton Inn in New Paltz is a great place to stay with the trail starting just across the street. The hotel also provides easy access to the Wallkill Trail.
