Pedal through the heart of MetroWest Massachusetts on the Upper Charles Trail Loop, an easy 16.8-mile (27.0 km) touring cycling route that offers a delightful escape into nature. You'll glide past tranquil waters like Louisa Lake and through scenic woodlands, with the entire journey taking about 1 hour and 40 minutes to complete. The trail's gentle 418 feet (128 metres) of elevation gain makes it a perfect choice for a relaxed ride, suitable for cyclists of all abilities.
For a smooth start, head to Fino Field in Milford, which provides convenient parking and restrooms.
