Constructed in 1779 and positioned at the geographic center of Loudon, Loudon Old Town Hall still stands today. The building was renovated in 1847, and today it boasts original Greek Revival architecture. The new town hall is closer to the city center, and today the building functions primarily as a church, but it is a cool piece of history to see while riding around.

This little-known road is an awesome section of smooth gravel. Not a lot of cars frequent the road, so it makes for a great backdoor entrance into Hemenway State Forest.

There are nice views of Highland Lake to be had from here on the Franklin Highway. It is worth even getting closer to the shoreline for a better view. The Northern Rail Trail runs adjacent to you between the shore and the highway, and it runs directly alongside the lake. It is easy to turn off here to get an even better place to take a break and enjoy the view.

There is a public beach and car parking here at the south end of Webster Lake. Whether you are cycling along Webster Road or along the Northern Rail Trail, it is worth a stop here to look at the views. There is also a small, compact covered bridge with exposed side trusses, which is gorgeous to look at going over Chance Pond Brook. In addition, there are also rest rooms here if the need arises.

Just south of the hamlet of Andover in New Hampshire, the Northern Rail Trail follows the Blackwater River. As you travel eastward, you come across this old Pratt Truss type of railway bridge going over the river. It is in a delightful setting and yet another fine bridge on the Northern Rail Trail.

This quiet pond offers a peaceful spot for shore fishing, making it a good place to stop and enjoy the waterfront view.
