This path passes through a state park, is shaded, there's quite a decent hill climb and windy section on the north end, but the rest of it is easy.
as of october 2024 this path is paved and quite nice.
Trail connects seamlessly to Windham RT and Methuen RT and these two trails have connections to Derry RT and Spicket River Greenway for a total of 18.75 miles of connected trail.
The northern part of trail is like Windham (excellent), but southern part of trail (1-mile) runs along highway 28 and is not good hardpack (a black dirt gravel). The trail is wide and protected from vehicles but there are lots of stops to let cars depart from stores along the route (lots of button pushing at traffic lights).
Did on e-bikes with 2" tires in early October. Done in 2-segments of 14 miles each (started in Newfields and then in Manchester and worked way to middle). From Manchester there are several lakes/ponds, so it is more scenic. Also, this segment has three railbed passes beneath the roads. You can stay on your bike for all but one - watch your head! Also the lead up and down to these tunnels is steep, so get some speed going up to them. From Newfield there are places to eat about 12 miles in. The trail is mostly crushed stone & some dirt.
Started at Delta Dental baseball stadium in Manchester. Look to quickly go over river and i93 on 2 great bridges. Seamless into Goffstown Rail Trail.
Part of an excellent run of connected trails including Derry and Salem Bike-Ped. Wide trail with great scenery including water.
Excellent paved trail. Like Derry it can have lots of people. Go during non-peak hours. Too bad it doesn't connect to another trail. We went ¼ mile south of paved trail which was not bad (could only average 8-10 mph and reversed course at a rutted bridge. One of the best finds of October (we did 24 trails).
Excellent and scenic trail. It starts just north of town. Great connection to Windham Rail Trail. Avoid peek exercise times as many visit this trail.
Rustic dirt trail that is like Granite Town RT (is a little easier) as it is dirt and connects with it. We quit at the Teva section as signs were posted "Private Property," even though camp was not in session.
A little under a mile, this trail meanders and crosses the Concord River twice, providing great views. Not crowded at all with good views of old mill buildings
We started in Manchester and rode east. The first 3 miles the surface was packed gravel with fall leaves but no rocks. We rode another 2 miles and found the path very bumpy with thicker gravel and rocks protruding. We have 2 inch tires but it wasn’t fun for us. We wanted to bike to Raymond but turned around. We have biked on other packed trails in NH without any issues but this path was worse after 3 miles.
