West Foss Farm Trail

Nice easy trail until it crosses the stream then turns into more challenging path. Small elevation changes. Lots of mosquitoes since it goes next to a stream/bog/swamp

Ashburnham Rail Trail

Very Enjoyable, Much natural beauty

September, 2024 by tammy.bucklew

I'm in love with this trail. Much of the trail path is dirt, but there is a new area with fine gravel. I find this such a peaceful trail and consider it to be in good maintenance. Thanks to everyone that maintains the trails.

Cotton Valley Rail Trail

cotton valley trail

So this trail has a hidden risk. Going from trail on the side of the rails to inside the rails can be tricky. My wife fell twice and skinned her knee pretty good. Also trail is narrow and has lots of walkers with dogs. Views are good near wolfboro but after that it’s a tree tunnel. Don’t need to do it again.

Assabet River Rail Trail

not what I expected

September, 2024 by chleary11

This is a decent trail but there are a few things to note: No parking lot on Marlboro end but I did find parking on a side street. The trail has many street crossings, especially when you are in Hudson. Some of the crossings are busy intersections. The trail ends in Hudson but you can bike along rte 62 for a few miles, then down a side street to pick it up again in stow. That portion of the trail will take you to action. The guide says this is 10 miles but I’m not sure if the Marlboro to Hudson section is 10 miles or if it is 10 miles with the stow to acton portion. Marlboro to Hudson didn’t seem like 10 miles. I wouldn’t go out of my way to do this tri

Wellington Greenway

Trail by MBTA station

September, 2024 by oneadventureroad

Wellington Greenway Trail is good place to ride my bike underpass the MBTA purple and orange line trains. Ducks walk by the river pond. I have seen yacht boats there.

Mass Central Rail Trail

Weston-Waltham section

September, 2024 by msandman1943_tl

This section (8/2024) is about 5 miles long. It goes through woodland and past leafy backyards, but it runs alongside the towers for a high-tension power line. Trees have been clear-cut about 25 feet on both sides of the trail, so there's no shade along this section. But the trail is wide, very straight, and smoothly paved. It has a few small ups and downs and crosses four or five quiet roads before it comes to a traffic signal at the intersection of Routes 126 and 27. Just beyond, the trail turns to crushed stone with a few sandy patches. There's a large supermarket and shopping center adjacent to the trail at that point.

Bruce Freeman Rail Trail

Agree. GREAT Trail!

September, 2024 by 44s9k9tzxm

We parked in West Concord and decided to ride south to Sudbury. Beautiful trail — ends 2 miles from where we parked with a locked gate. BUT… there is more trail on the other side. There is a nice, paved switchback up to a crossing at Powdermill Road. All marked with great signage. The way down on the other side is very steep and not paved—but manageable after dismounting. Trail is just as beautiful on the other side. We didn’t make it quite to the end because I got a construction-based flat at North Road (the Davis Field parking lot). I didn’t notice that they hadn’t paved the transitions at the road crossing and pinched a tire. Oh well. Hopefully, by the time you ride the construction will be complete and you can just enjoy the scenery!

Winnipesaukee River Trail

well maintained with beautiful views of the river

August, 2024 by brenda.viglienzoni

This trail was lovely. I did the entire trail both ways in a couple of hours. Mostly flat and well maintained. Began in Tilton on Rt 140 and road to the end in Franklin. Many nice places to stop along the way. Took some great pictures. It was a bit confusing when the trail ends and you are routed down Main Street in Tilton. I almost turned around at this point. Honestly It’s really not that far through town. Just be careful of cars backing out of parking spots. The vistas are worth it, keep going. Looking forward to checking out another trail.

Martin H. Burns Wildlife Management Area Trail

flooded

August, 2024 by qgtwb28wbh

The trail no longer runs through. It is flooded year round due to beaver activity. Not sure if DCR or National Grid maintains it but it has been flooded for a couple years now.

Somerville Community Path

From the Charles to Davis Square

August, 2024 by msandman1943_tl

A great example of smart urban planning - separated, paved path from Cambridge Crossing on the Cambridge-Charlestown city line along the Green Line extension and then along the MBTA right of way to Davis Square, where you can connect to a path to Alewife and beyond. There's access to the new Green Line stations with locked bike cages and to the streets of Somerville. Used by bike commuters and some pedestrians; scenic in its own way.
