Canalside Rail Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

The views of the Connecticut River and the surrounding deciduous woodland and agricultural fields are stunning and particularly so in autumn when the trees turn a crimson colour. Fantastic traffic free cycling.

Canalside Rail Trail - Connecticut River Crossing Section

Highlight (Segment) • Bridge

Nice bridge crossing the Connecticut River. The bridge is only open to walkers and cyclists, so when the bridge is quiet, you can take a minute to stop riding and enjoy the wonderful view.
