Northern Rail Trail

Beautiful Trail, hard pack for easy riding

September, 2025 by brenda.viglienzoni

Beautiful trail. Enjoyed the sites, sounds and smells. It runs along the river. I got on at the Depot Rd parking lot in Boscawen. Very easy access and plenty of parking. I Road 15 miles. The trail is fairly level with very little incline.

Farmington Recreational Rail-Trail

Good Level Trail

September, 2025 by krslvrtu

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!

Ashuelot Recreational Rail Trail

Awesome Trail!

September, 2025 by mtheis.45

First time and loved it! I rode the entire route, starting at the south end parking lot. (42.758592, -72.471175) This trail has some unique features and the scenery is beautiful as you ride next to the river and through the woods. As a former rail, this trail has nice and gradual elevation changes and has fun bridges, which all seem to be maintained well.

At the time of my ride (end of Aug, '25) there were a couple of detours around mile 14 and 16 (heading north) but they have good (not great) detour signs listed to continue the route with a short road detour. As some folks mentioned, there are a few areas that look like they would be pretty wet during the wet season, but I had no issues with any area of the trail and never had to stop for downed trees in the way.

I rode my gravel setup (no suspension, 35mm tires) and had a blast! I'd highly recommend the trail and hope to be back for another spin soon.

Fort Hill Recreational Rail Trail

We found this trail to be well maintained. Not as smooth as some rail trails, but smooth enough on our full suspension fat tire bikes. Hard tails may not enjoy as much. Nice scenery along the Connecticut river.

Cheshire Rail Trail (Cheshire Branch Rail Trail)

Not what we expected

August, 2025 by rmitera36

We started at Walpole after searching for the trailhead parking lot finally parked our car thanks to the locals at the Irving station. We almost didn’t recognize the trail because it was grass. There were no markings and we found ourselves initially at the river at the boat launch because we didn’t realize that was the trail we were following. After backtracking, we followed the other grass trail toward Keene. Although there were portions that were dirt and gravel, the 9 mile ride that we managed to cover at 6 miles an hour with primarily grass. After an hour and a half, we realize we are only halfway to our destination of Keene and we turned back.. I recommendation would be not to start in Wall Paul, but to start and keen where the trail is paved

New Boston Rail Trail

wonderful ride

August, 2025 by trainman1957

We went there today! What a super fast fun trail! Lots to see and do ! Bring a picnic lunch and spend the day!!!

Windham Rail Trail

Great Trail!

August, 2025 by johnbuckley62

Salem to Derry - entirely paved Awesome trail will do it again!

Derry Rail Trail

Great trail!

August, 2025 by johnbuckley62

Started at Salem Depot and went north to Derry…awesome ride Entire path is pavement

Presidential Rail Trail

Challenging but worth the effort

August, 2025 by luv2bike23

The scenery along the Presidential Trail is varied and spectacular. The views of the Presidential Range are awesome and the Gorham end of the trail is almost as beautiful as it winds along the Moose River through a narrow valley. The trail surface is also varied and it's very bumpy in spots. I found it almost painful to complete the trail on a gravel bike, which is why I only rated it with four stars. A short-travel full-suspension mountain bike is probably ideal for this trail. This was definitely one of the most beautiful rail-trails I've ridden and I can't wait to ride it again during the autumn.

Warren to East Haverhill Railroad Grade Trail

ride the rocket from Warren to East Haverill

August, 2025 by pnelson4

Starting at the rocket site in Warren there was heavy ATV traffic kicking up enough dust to make the bike ride less enjoyable than it would be w/o them. The section from GlenCliff to E.Haverill where ATVs are not allowed is heavily overgrown and could really use a fully groomed makeover. We ride gravel bikes not mountain bikes and bailed out onto Rt 118 partway along due to poor trail conditions. Scenic corridor with untapped potential if given some tender love and care.

Mascoma River Greenway

Short but fun

August, 2025 by georgerisktaker

Paved. Runs through Lebanon. This trail is a must if you are going to do the Northern Rail Trail.

Northern Rail Trail

Long ride - sore bottom

August, 2025 by georgerisktaker

Longest trail in State and is deservedly well rated by most. It is a consistently groomed crushed stone trail with few roots and rocks. Not many places to stop and sit which on a long ride can be helpful. Make sure to ride to the statue at the southern trail head.
