Presidential Rail Trail

Biking: mixed use trail, choose carefully

July, 2026 by david666

This trail has two very different parts, and you should choose carefully or you'll be disappointed. Many of the reviews here are for horse riding, including in winter, which requires very different conditions than biking. We biked in summer starting from Jefferson on Mountain Bikes (a trail/hybrid would work as well but not a road bike.)

First part: Jefferson - Gorham: gorgeous, well maintained, nothing but cyclists and some fishermen and hikers. The trail is well marked, well maintained and a real joy. It is varied, going through forests or near/over streams, with many opportunities to freshen up in a swimming hole. 5 stars.

Second part: Goram - Berlin: awful for biking. This is a road, not a trail, with ATVs buzzing up and down on it, covering you in dust, tearing the trail and making the ride very unpleasant, with paddles, cracks and bumps. Except for the occasional excitement of fearing for your life, there's not much there. You'll be biking next to a wide river with no swimming access. 1 star.

Franconia Notch Recreation Path

Great trail, but steep at times

July, 2026 by david666

We started from Echo Lake parking lot, first going north all the way - not that interesting, and pretty steep. Then went south all the way to the end of the trail - much more fun. On the way back you'll have a lot of climbing, but it's pretty moderate and there are plenty of nice stops along the way. For a perfect ending, finish at the lake!

Lamoille Valley Rail Trail

What a wonderful trail!

July, 2026 by wayne.ogden

A group of biking friends and I biked the length of the LVRT from Swanton to Saint Johnsbury (June 29-July 1, 2026). We had been hoping to ride the trail for the past several years but put it off due to the severe damage to it from several years of flooding rains. The LVRT experience was well worth the wait. The trail was in great shape. The scenery was spectacular and the communities along the trail seem to fully embrace the trail and the riders it attracts. There are quality lodging and eating options within a few miles of the trail. Organizations like the Lamoille Valley Bike Tours and Vermont's various governmental agencies have done themselves proud in creating, maintaining and promoting this trail. Even the black flies and mosquitos seemed to encourage riders by ignoring us.

My friends and I have ridden quite a few trails over the past 20 years in both Europe and the US and this little 100 mile gem ranks right up there with the best. Thank you to all the private and public individuals and agencies who made this trail a reality. And, a special acknowledgement of the many property abutters who may have been skeptical when this trail was just a proposal but seem to wholeheartedly seem to support the LVRT now!

Lamoille Valley Rail Trail

New Trailhead in Swanton, VT

June, 2026 by vanhuttd

There is a new trailhead with parking for about 20 cars near the west end of the trail (Swanton end) where the trail crosses Robin Hood Dr. better option than the Park & Ride a few blocks away which has fewer parking spots and several trailers stored in the lot.

Northern Rail Trail

Fantastic Trail.

May, 2026 by rwasson

There's another couple of miles of mostly paved trail that goes beyond the parking lot in Lebanon. That's an excellent section of the trail. It took us all the way to Glen Road in West Lebanon.

Hooksett Riverwalk Trail

Gorgeous walk. We made the mistake of bringing our bikes and missed the no bike sign. Woops. Lessons learned. Great walking path with kids and pups.

Cotton Valley Rail Trail

Caution walk your bike over the train rails!

November, 2025 by mwelch67

Started on the Wakefield side off RT 16. I enjoyed the challenge of the rails still in place. Keeps it fun and challenging! Each crossing had a sign saying to walk your bike over the rails, not sure how so many people fall walking there bikes over the rails. The rails can be challenging when passing oncoming people. I’m not ranking the trail lower for this, but some people would only get a one ¿¿ review ¿ Bring a picnic and enjoy the state park!

Ammonoosuc Rail Trail

Nice 40 mile RT ride

October, 2025 by mikepamnate

Despite all the bad reviews for this trail we gave it a try and I'm so glad that we did. It was a little rough in some spots but nothing terrible. There are some scenic parts of the trail, a few trestle bridges, and one small tunnel. The river view is breathtaking in many spots. There's a great view where the river bends near a long covered bridge with a little chapel in the background...this time of the year the foliage just added to the beauty.

Sugar River Trail

Just go and do it!

October, 2025 by b24liberatornow

The trail is sandy for approximately the first one and a half miles on the Newport end. So what. If you fall off your bike, it will hurt less. The rest of the trail more than makes up for it. You get to ride across two railroad covered bridges - name another bike trail in New England that has that. There is also a microbrewery backed right up to the trail, and they are open early on Fridays so you can do 3/4 of the out and back ride and then grab a slice and a beer before finishing in Newport. Very scenic - saw several turkeys and a heron in back to back years.
