Cotton Valley Rail Trail

Almost made it…

September, 2025 by vcsn7rtpsz

Mixed feelings about this trail. I’m a new rider so more experience may make me rate higher in the future. The location is beautiful but the in and out of riding between the former rails can be stressful. You have to approach at proper angle or you will wipe out which I did just a mile shy of the end of the trail. Banged myself and my bike up pretty good. Pretty much impossible to pass along the trail. If someone is coming in the other direction better for one of you to pull off. I had to each time as I came close to hitting handlebars of passing bike a couple times. I would love to try it later in the fall but would be concerned if mats get covered by leaves.

Sanford-Springvale Rail Trail

very peaceful

September, 2025 by boppa

Started at Oak Street trail head parking lot. Headed south, roughly 4 miles out and 4 back. Well maintained crushed packed stone. Best to turn back at Carpenters Bridge if bicycling without fat tires. Part after Carpenters Bridge is Sandy and moguls from ATV use.

Cotton Valley Rail Trail

Will not attempt again unless it changes

September, 2025 by mary.hanson.home

We probably crossed the rails 15 times before my wheel caught and I went down, scraping my knee and hands, I got pretty bruised up. I couldn’t bend my knee to ride back and uber was not an option. So my husband rode back to the other end to get the car. This is dangerous and the trail is narrow for bikes and walkers at the same time. We had to stop so that bikes in the opposite direction could pass. Would be a nice ride if it were fixed up a bit.

Northern Rail Trail

Beautiful Trail, hard pack for easy riding

September, 2025 by brenda.viglienzoni

Beautiful trail. Enjoyed the sites, sounds and smells. It runs along the river. I got on at the Depot Rd parking lot in Boscawen. Very easy access and plenty of parking. I Road 15 miles. The trail is fairly level with very little incline.

Farmington Recreational Rail-Trail

Good Level Trail

September, 2025 by krslvrtu

Trail is nice and flat, some soft dirt (minimal), and small rocks across bridge. Trail needs a good chain drag, roots cut back, and rake. Otherwise it’s a good dirt trail with lots of shade. Excellent for walking dogs too!

Presidential Rail Trail

Challenging but worth the effort

August, 2025 by luv2bike23

The scenery along the Presidential Trail is varied and spectacular. The views of the Presidential Range are awesome and the Gorham end of the trail is almost as beautiful as it winds along the Moose River through a narrow valley. The trail surface is also varied and it's very bumpy in spots. I found it almost painful to complete the trail on a gravel bike, which is why I only rated it with four stars. A short-travel full-suspension mountain bike is probably ideal for this trail. This was definitely one of the most beautiful rail-trails I've ridden and I can't wait to ride it again during the autumn.

Warren to East Haverhill Railroad Grade Trail

ride the rocket from Warren to East Haverill

August, 2025 by pnelson4

Starting at the rocket site in Warren there was heavy ATV traffic kicking up enough dust to make the bike ride less enjoyable than it would be w/o them. The section from GlenCliff to E.Haverill where ATVs are not allowed is heavily overgrown and could really use a fully groomed makeover. We ride gravel bikes not mountain bikes and bailed out onto Rt 118 partway along due to poor trail conditions. Scenic corridor with untapped potential if given some tender love and care.

Mascoma River Greenway

Short but fun

August, 2025 by georgerisktaker

Paved. Runs through Lebanon. This trail is a must if you are going to do the Northern Rail Trail.

Northern Rail Trail

Long ride - sore bottom

August, 2025 by georgerisktaker

Longest trail in State and is deservedly well rated by most. It is a consistently groomed crushed stone trail with few roots and rocks. Not many places to stop and sit which on a long ride can be helpful. Make sure to ride to the statue at the southern trail head.

Winnipesaukee River Trail

Worthy trail

August, 2025 by georgerisktaker

Most of the trip is a rail trail of good quality. The ride through Tilton is on the road and can be tricky at one intersection. The "About this Route" provides a good description. The Tilton end of the trail by MacDonalds and Super 8 is not for trail parking. Use the address shown which is within 1 mile of the end of the trail. Franklin is a great town to visit.

Lake Winnisquam Scenic Trail

Fun but short

August, 2025 by georgerisktaker

Great views and we enjoyed the changes in grade and the turns, but a very short trail. Must be combined with Winni Trail, but that is also short.

WOW Trail

Old Town Trail

August, 2025 by georgerisktaker

Most of the trip is paved and runs through the town of Laconia. There appear to be homeless people (campers at least) on one portion of the trail. Short trail that must be combined with the WOW trail for a longer ride (still short).
