This is a good trail, but if you start in Milford and do the entire checkmark there are a lot of street crossings. The pretty parts of the trail are nice and shady and wooded, but there is a fair amount of commercial areas that you have to get through. It’s nice and flat and there are lots of parking areas along the way. My gps did not take me to a parking lot but when I put the trail into AllTrails I got accurate directions.
Did this in August. The trails are well kept, a bit challenging but the views are incredible! You can ride right into ptown and avoid parking hassles and expense.
My husband I decided to ride this trail on our visit to Boston. We parked at 31 McKenn Street in Waltham and rode in towards Boston, then crossed the river to ride back on the other side. First, I'll start with the positives. It has areas with nice shade and the views along the river are neat. Now for the negatives. The trail boasts it is all asphalt. It is not. There were many spots with packed dirt surface. Even though I don't like riding on anything but asphalt or concrete, this at least was pretty smooth and level. NOT compared to the badly maintained asphalt and concrete. The vegetation needed to be trimmed, the path was NOT marked at all (luckily my husband had a map on his phone), many sections were very narrow, not wide enough to have two bikes pass and the asphalt had many cracks that I had to be careful to watch for. Sorry but whoever has the contract to maintain this trail is falling down on the job. Boston is such a neat city so I won't let this trail color our experience as totally bad, but you couldn't pay me to ride this trail again.
Trail is well maintained, very few bumps, and flat. It's listed as 6.6 miles long but I clocked it at closer to 7.5 miles. I gave it 4 stars because it's not really a very scenic trail.
Went on a ride just after 1pm. There were a lot of people. Some are so clueless that there are others that might want to use the trails. On a 90 degree day there were kids path side selling cold drinks and ice cream. At least they are out of the house. Path condition was nice. The path is maintained nicely and it’s clean. Wish there was a trash a can of two or few along the path as I saw many doggie poop gabs just left on the side of the path. Over all it was a good ride. Next time I would go in the morning or late evening to see how the crows is. Enjoy!
It is such a lovely trail. The view is gorgeous, either from the ocean or from the land. It goes through a few towns, all lovely and friendly. There are shops along the trail for you to stop by for ice cream, coffee or lemonade. There are a few road crossing, but the cars are very friendly and stop to let cyclists cross. The destination Bristol is just beautiful! Some areas are in the open, so the wind can be your friend or not …..
It’s a nice paved path, shaded half way through. Good for families with kids. Parking is free but though to find, suggests keep following the path till you find parking. There are several options along the way from the eastern end of the trail. Few food and restroom options, within coffee or mall shops. Public restrooms are very limited at least when starting from east end. We went only half way and back, with kids. Looking forward to finish the second half soon.
I live in Massachusetts about 25 minutes from this trail, my absolute favorite trail is the East Bay bike path, but that is about an hour drive for me, so this is one I frequent more often. I like the length of this ride, and that it is scenic, and more interesting than some of the rail trails that can be kind of boring. I think it is an easy ride, with just a few spots I need to lower my gears. I pack a lunch, snacks, and can be out for a few hours. There is ample parking, 195 Davison Ave Woonsocket is the address I use for WAZE. I have never gone as far as Providence, so I can only review Woonsocket - Lincoln.
It’s my go to trail because it’s so close to my house ! you can walk down close to the river it’s cute . i always get to see ducks in the pond
In Boston area last week for a conference and decided to try out the Minuteman Trail. Spouse and I have been enjoying bike/rail trails over the past few years and usually one of the first things we check out when traveling to a new area. Trail was in great shape & was as good as expected. Being summer, it was pretty hot weather but the trail provided ample shade for us to stay cool. Particularly appreciated the history of the trail, and it's relevance to Paul Revere's late night ride. This was our first time in the Greater Boston area, as we're from North Carolina. All in all, a good ride and fun experience.
A delightful paved trail in excellent condition. Relatively flat with some pretty views of the lake. There is a side spur to Speen Street that connects to the Natick Mall. Great for a quick and easy ride.
