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.
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.
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.
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!
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.
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).
Nice comfortable ride we started in the parking lot in North Hampton and came out on Borthwick Ave near the hospital 17 miles out and back route that will be pretty in the fall
Very poor it's not what it say you have barriers that you can't fit a trike through needs a lot of work Very little pavement on it.
I enjoy taking a walk before or after running errands. This path has filled a need in the Mt Washington Valley! The paved surface is welcoming and checking out the turtles on the north end of the pond is fun. Enjoy!
Great trail to ride on, well maintained crushed stone path. We got on at mile 13.4 in Portsmouth and rode to mile 6.8 then turned around and headed back. A lot of tree coverage which is nice for shade but not much variation in scenery. Not sure if there is more to see further south on the trail. That being said, it’s still a great place to get outside and exercise!
Smooth cider trail all bikes, well signed, 3 road crossings well marked, full canopy not a lot to see except Hampton Airfield. Recommend stopping at Airfield after riding at restaurant and watch small planes.
