    Tips

    Running

    Once the railbed of the Boston and Maine Railroad's Northern Line, the Northern Rail Trail is now a lovely, unpaved multi-use trail. This section of the trail is mostly compacted stone dust with a few bridges to take you over waterways or the road, and it's a great way to log a long run (or, of course, break it up into shorter sections).

    Cycling

    This section of the Northern Rail Trail, once the railbed of the Boston and Maine Railroad's Northern Line, traces the course of the Merrimack River south of Franklin. The surface is mostly compacted stone dust — great for anything except skinny road tires —with a few bridges to take you over waterways or the road.
