A nice part of the trail

This section of the Mass Central Rail Trail passes under the interstate bridge built to cross the Quinapoxet River. There is some greenery surrounding the path, and it looks up towards the bridge way above.

The second-largest water body in Massachusetts, the Wachusett Reservoir is as beautiful as it is huge. It can hold a whopping 65 billion US gallons of water. The Quinapoxet and Stillwater rivers and the Quabbin Aqueduct feed into the reservoir. Bear in mind that camping and swimming isn't allowed in some places around the reservoir.

This trail is part of a planned 104 mile path from Boston to Northampton. It is laid over an old rail bed that was destroyed during a hurricane in 1938. This section is mostly hard packed crushed stone that is great for biking, running and walking. There are some short segments of grassy double track.

Thayer Pond WMA is a 131-acre outdoor playground with the Central Mass Rail Trail running through it. You can enjoy wildlife viewing, hunting, and fishing in this natural landscape. The eastern part of the preserve is home to Thayer Pond, while the western part has a mixed hardwood forest with gray foxes and squirrels. Mill Brook flows through it, where you can spot several beaver impoundments along its banks.

This 280-acre pond is used to protect the natural wetlands in this area. It is a popular spot for birdwatching and fishing. It is a great spot for a break to enjoy the wonderful setting.

Wallum Pond Hill is a 663-foot hill just off of Wallum Lake Road. This is a nice climb through a pretty area, ending at the Douglas State Forest-managed Wallum Lake. If you head north from here and are looking to add a little gravel to your road ride, you can link up with the Southern New England Trunkline Trail.
