Shining Sea Bikeway

Hard to beat the scenery on this trail!

June, 2026 by jonnymopar

My wife and I stayed in Woods Hole, and we biked from there to Falmouth center almost entirely via this bike path. Absolutely beautiful! It's well-maintained and is packed with gorgeous scenery. At one point, you're so close to the beach that the sand comes right up to the trail itself! Shortly north of there, depending on what time of year it is, you'll get a nose full of the amazing smell of concord grapes all along the path. I can't wait to go back and travel the entire trail.

Minuteman Commuter Bikeway

I parked at Lexington lot & took my atb after reading how rough the path is. Pleasantly surprised. I'll take my road bike next time.

World War II Veterans Memorial Trail/Norton Rail-Trail

great ride

June, 2026 by alinecsammut

This was such a beautiful ride. Didn’t mind the small section of gravel. Wish users were a little more courteous, don’t leave dog poop filled bags on trail, (there were a few on path ¿), and if you’re scootering by, please slow down or give verbal warning. Two scooters raced by me and I had not heard them coming. It was alarming how fast they were going. Most users were very friendly and courteous. I appreciated that.

Minuteman Commuter Bikeway

Only half the trail is open

June, 2026 by lambros705

As of June 1, 2026, the first half of this trail starting in Bedford, MA is nice, but due to construction, it stops about halfway - I believe somewhere in Lexington. You can choose to exit the trail and go onto Massachusetts Avenue to ride in the bike lane, but that involves riding right alongside traffic and can be very stressful and dangerous. My husband and I did this today and I don't think I will do this again. At any point, someone in a parked car adjacent to where you are riding can open up their door right into you. Also, the bike lane often shares a lane with cars and is pretty scary for people not used to this. I hope the rest of the Minuteman bike path opens up to bikers again soon!

Washington Secondary Bike Path

Washington Secondary (MidPoint West Warwick (West) and Back

May, 2026 by gregory3571

Trail was asphalt and exceptionally well maintained. At intersections, drivers in cars were most courteous I'd ever seen. Cars stopped to let bikers across; sometimes even when light was green. Heading West is a slight uphill, which makes return trip exceptionally easy. My daughter and I enjoyed many bridge crossing. Stopping at one bridge we encountered a resident feeding turtles off the bridge; carp on the Pawtuxet river took some meant for turtles. There were many nice graphics at stops explaining Coventry and other industrial towns along the way. Many beautiful old brick mill building were seen also. We passed three ice cream places, General store, and a tavern. Ride was quite beautiful and treed.

Bruce Freeman Rail Trail

great trail!!

May, 2026 by chleary11

I started in Acton and went up to Chelmsford. Plenty of parking and clean bathrooms—bonus! I really enjoyed this trail and look forward to doing the southern half soon.

South Spencer Rail Trail

Quite and Peaceful

May, 2026 by don.gerardi

Lot's of stops along the way to enjoy the sites. It's a very well maintained small trail

East Bay Bike Path (RI)

Recent upgrades transform this trail

May, 2026 by andrix

My wife and I ride (e-bikes) this once a year or so. Today (Monday mid-May) was the first we experienced some new bridges eliminating previously awkward and annoying sections. The trail is paved and has wildlife, the bay, a troll sculpture, several bike shops and some eateries along the way. It has always been a go to for us but even more so now. We also did an extra 6 road (rt) miles to check out Roger Williams University. A gem of a trail.

Twin Cities Rail Trail

Nice enough.

May, 2026 by gbrosseau

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.

Charles River Bike Path

poorly maintained

The trail is poorly maintained. Do not recommend.

World War II Veterans Memorial Trail/Norton Rail-Trail

great for inline skating

April, 2026 by rsamary121

Came here for my first skating trail as a beginner it was great! Lots of sticks around so beware of your step but other than that will be coming here a lot more! Loved it
