Take a Photo Tour of the Trail from West to East:
The route starts right here, on the bridge over the Connecticut River, heading into Woodsville, NH
Riding the Ammonosuc Rail Trail in Woodsville. This is the old bridge over the trail. It was torn down in September of 2018.
The new bridge over the trail..."Arc d'Woodsville"?

The rail trail can have some loose coarse gravel in this section near Bath.
The Bath Covered Bridge and the Dam Falls.
Not even 5 miles into the ride, cyclists are already eating smoked cheese and pepperoni at The Brick Store in Bath. This is the oldest general store in the USA
The rule in 1832: "ONE DOLLAR FINE to DRIVE ANY team faster than a WALK on this bridge".
One of many trestles on the Ammonoosuc Rail Trail near Bath
More loose gravel, especially at the gates.
If this loose gravel is not what you want to ride, take the on-road option, see the link under "Maps"
The on-road option is scenic and a pleasant ride, with one good hill-climb. This avoids the coarse gravel sections between Bath and Lisbon
View from the top of the on-road option between Bath and Lisbon. This avoids the gravel.
Peace, Love and a VW Bus
Everybody welcome on the Ammonoosuc Rail Trail.

Love it when bad pavement suddenly becomes new black velvet. Bishop Road.
River Road
Here is where you turn off River Road to access the Ammonoosuc Rail Trail again, heading towards Littleton.
Between these 2 gates is a right turn where you access River Road, heading from Littleton towards Lisbon.
Up ahead on the left, before the hill and the guard rail, is the entrance to the Littleton Bikeway
Take this pathway in the front yard of the pumpkin colored house and stay straight to get onto the Littleton Bikeway
