Tripadvisors tilnærming til anmeldelser
Hver Tripadvisor-anmeldelse går gjennom et automatisert sporingssystem før den legges ut. Dette systemet samler inn informasjon som svarer på følgende spørsmål: Hvordan, hva, hvor og når. Hvis systemet oppdager noe som muligens strider imot retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet, blir anmeldelsen ikke publisert.
Når systemet oppdager et problem, kan en anmeldelse automatisk avvises, sendes til anmelderen for bekreftelse eller gjennomgås manuelt av teamet vårt av innholdsspesialister. Disse spesialistene jobber døgnet rundt for å opprettholde kvaliteten av anmeldelsene på nettstedet vårt.
Teamet vårt sjekker hver anmeldelse som er lagt ut på nettstedet og bestrides av fellesskapet vårt for ikke å møte retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet.

We’re moderately enthusiastic e-bikers and we have friends up in Norwich who we were visiting and we were looking for something to do for the day prior to meeting them. We found this trail and thought it looked terrific. The Riverside trailhead in Lebanon was very easy to find as was the trail. It was in great shape. The usual stuff, an occasional downed tree, pothole, washout, none of which were significant. We rode it with two bikes and with a dog trailer. Going from Riverside to Grafton was a very gradual ascent, I was able to keep my bike in fourth or fifth gear and level one assist the whole way out. Coming back because of rain I used level 2.
The trail was in good shape, mostly dirt and packed gravel. The trail itself is through Forest, but was interspersed with beautiful views of lake mascoma, and Enfield and other small towns and businesses. Those are opportunities to get off the trail and eat and use facilities. because of rain we went 12.5 miles out and then returned. Can’t comment on miles 14-58 but what we ride we lived and will go back.

This 23 mile rail-to-trail path is very good, and is on par with many of the others that I have done in DC, Maryland, and PA (with the only exception being the amazing rail-to-trail Segment beginning at the Maryland border and proceeding north to Freetown, PA).
From the actual trailhead in Lebanon (with free parking in designated spaces), the trail is paved asphalt for about 0.3 miles before crossing an active rural road (Bank Street), where it crosses the first of many old wooden train bridges and transitions to packed earth/crushed gravel (with very few uneven areas or overgrowth) for the next few miles. Within the first 3 miles, there are 5 old wooden train bridges of various designs used to cross the meandering stream/river that this rail line was built along. From the Lebanon trailhead and proceeding east, this rail-to-trail has a very consistant, gradual uphill grade of about 2% (over the first 3 miles, you will gain ~120 feet).
If you want to see an actual covered bridge, you can find the very well preserved Covered Bridge #65 before mile 2, but it is 100-m off the trail on an active road (Riverside Road, which also is the second road crossing that you must make as you head east).

Great trail to ride in the fall for the changing leaves! Restrooms are few and far between. Make sure to visit the Danbury country store.

It was my sincere intention to fully enjoy the therapeutic value of hiking along the rail trails and solo camping along the way. I was SO excited, I was all prepared (over prepared actually) and had been planning this excursion for months. I didn't get very far, as fear basically paralyzed me the minute that I touched down at the trail.
For some reason ALL of the local ATV riders were hyper-aware of my presence and so they were recurrently, in unison, revving up their engines as loud as they possibly could, in some kind of a group signal regarding my being there, alone, hiking, not bothering anyone - but not about anyone else there hiking alone apparently. Just me.
How interesting.
My original plan was to stay much longer, hiking to the mountains in the North, but on day 2 I heard someone nailing something against a tree near my tent. When I came out of the tent the next day I saw that someone had nailed a NO TRESPASSING sign riddled with bullets near my camp. That was really kind of whoever felt that was appropriate.
On state park property. Really?
I have attached those photos of the lovely, bullet riddled sign that was meant for me specifically.
Thank you for your welcoming spirit New Hampshire. My visit wasn't traumatic at all.

Rode 10+ miles from Potter Place to MP115. Nice hard pack gravel surface, nicely maintained but not a whole lot to see. Couple of ponds but no place to sit and enjoy the view. Slight grade going up but nice on the return.

Potters Place in Andover is a great place to start your bike or walk on the Northern Rail Trail. On the week-end May-Oct. you have the benefit of having the museum at the Rail Station & old Post Office open. But a quiet week day when they are closed, or a beautiful day "off season" you experience a lovely deserted quiet for taking pictures, looking through the windows , eating at one of the picnic tables, and just imagining the history of the area before or after your excursion on the Rail Trail.
Heading several miles towards Highland Lake is an easy, level, walk or bike ride of several miles. This section would be cool and shady in the summer, colorful in the fall, and in "off season" you have trail side views of marsh, river, well kept fields and occasional homes.
There are features for the whole family at various points on this section of the trail: at the edge of a large sand pit, there is a picnic table and sand pile with many small dump trucks and other toy machinery for kids to play with. Further along, there is a baseball field and playground beside the trail. There is a lovely old iron railroad trestle bridge, a covered bridge, and a horseshoe shaped pond to view. If you are hungry, follow the sign and wooded short cut to Pizza Chef for reasonably priced, very good pizzas, subs or pasta.
Depending on where you exit the trail and drive in your car, east of Proctor Academy on Rte 4 is Naughty Nellie's Ice Cream with a wide selection of choices and unusual flavors. There are many picnic tables and several Adirondack chairs where you can enjoy your ice cream outdoors.

We usually ride on country roads, having to be cautious of traffic at times. Lots of hills, ups and downs around the lakes. Great, but here was a change of pace. Flat, nice trail construction, good scenery, no getting lost, safe from cars, easy. This would be especially good for families. All ages from kids to grandparents. Great to take along a bike trailer with tots. Good workout since I didn’t have to give up at steep hills. Great for large groups since strong riders can go ahead and either wait or double back, no side trails to lose slower riders.

Until 1963 one could ride three times a day to Boston in a one-car Budd car, enjoying the scenery and the trees brushing up against the train. Now most of the former rail line is converted to a well-maintained gravel trail, the most used part of which is from Lebanon. Plants, including invasive plants, are marked along the way, and the users of the trail respect the right-of-way by not scattering litter in their wake. In this age of pandemic, almost everyone also wears masks and.keep the necessary distance. There's ample parking near the start of the trail in Lebanon. Compliments to the local organizations and the State of New Hampshire for so effectively converting the rail line to a use for the public good.

I have experience bike riding rail trails. This one gets a B+. Most of the trail is hard dirt with some areas of fine gravel. If you have a racing/road bike like me, you may have some minor issues with traction. Tires w/ some tread or a crossover bike probably works better but overall I was able to maneuver well enough. The trail is plenty long on the New Hampshire side. The Vermont side is just beginning to be constructed, although they did use some asphalt to make that part of the trail. Hopefully they'll decide to use more asphalt for the rest of the trail. The maps/info boards could have been better with info. Some of it was unclear as to where on the trail you were or how many miles you had ridden. Fortunately GPS helps. I only had time to ride 10 miles one way and back. Hopefully I'll get back here again.

Est-ce que tous les sentiers de la piste Ni Rail Trail sont asphaltés?

Does anyone know current conditions in the Lebanon to Grafton area?

I've been intrigued with doing a century(ish) ride on gravel and am going to ride it out and back starting in Concord. Are there stores near the road crossings at suitable intervals where I can get food/drinks? Thanks in advance.
Skrevet 19. september 2016
I can vouch that there are stores in Lebanon (the beginning), Enfield, Canaan, Grafton and Danville. I can't say past that.
Skrevet 20. september 2016
there are many entry points. Such as Lebanon, Enfield, Canaan....
Try to access from Lebanon ( near CCBA) since it is the most maintained. The other entrance in Lebanon has known to have glass pieces and doesn't seem to be well maintained.
It is a great trail...make sure to go in Fall....spring....summer....snowy winter. It is just fantastic !
