love this trail and am really looking forward to more good-weather days ahead. I managed to get out for a ride this afternoon after a quick rain shower moved through, and it turned out to be a decent day. Despite the recent rain—and even snow just two days ago—the trail was in great shape between Highgate and Fairfield. I rode 15 miles out and back for a total of 30 miles. Smooth ride, beautiful scenery, and well-maintained conditions. Can’t wait to be back out there again soon! Better weather is coming…
I did this as an extension of a ride down from Newport on the Sugar River Trail. I agree with the comment above about the section along Washington street by all the box stores where you are essentially riding on the verge of the highway. It doesn't seem like it would take much to fix that section up and make for a more seamless connection to the Sugar river trail. It would also be nice at the end of the trail in Claremont to give some indications to local services (food!).
Some big hills and a few water crossings. Pretty difficult in the snow a few icy spots. Was still enjoyable.
A real rail trail.¿ A little danger if you hit the rails.¿ You move from within, to the sides a lot. Worth the risk. Great scenery and condition. Biked with e-bike with 2.1" tires. Expect Wolfeboro to be crowded during summer and fall weekends. After the 12-mile ride to Wolfeboro, there are many wonderful places to stop for a bite to eat and drink. Of 20 Rail Trials we rode in October, this was one of the top two crushed stone trails we rode in NH.
Short, but there are some local add-on trails at both ends of the trail. Add on trails are mostly dirt and mostly for mountain bikes but our e-bikes allowed us to add a mile to the adventure.
The trail is beautiful ... and there are three trees that were blown down a few days ago. Clearing them out requires a chainsaw or a group of strong people. It is possible to walk around them. If possible, I will post some photos. It's unfortunate that I see no way of communicating this directly to the State of Vermont.
The scenery is very nice which is why I gave it more than one star. The surface is sand. Sometimes pretty well packed. Other times quite loose. It was doable with our hybrid bikes, but a lot of work and not much fun. Add to this a steady stream of dirt bikes and 4x4s kicking up dust and spewing fumes! Just not our kind of cycling.
Plenty of parking at the Pondicherry Wildlife trail head. We ride fat tire ebikes. The trail presented little issue with some rougher, more narrow sections close to the refuge. There is a lovely viewing platform near the start of the trail. We rode in late September. The foliage was not peak but stunning none the less. The trail had only a few leaves and few puddles. Not the best for a standard bike but perfect for bikes with wider tires. We rode up to Randolf and turned around, 34 miles. not busy but we saw other riders, dog walkers, hikers and a couple of horse riders. Great views of the mountains when you break into a meadow or wetland. really fun. I took off a star because standard bikes might struggle.
Lovely easy trail. Brand new with lots of benches and area information.
We road 5 miles of the trail starting in Littleton.
But after 5 miles we turned back because ATV's have torn-up the trail.
This trail is OK for walking, but no longer OK for bicycles.
It is sad. It would be a nice trail if the ATV's had not destroyed it.
Trail closed at I91 westbound. DANGER Do not enter sign. Gate across trail.
