Merrimack River Greenway Trail
MRGT Overview: The Merrimack River Greenway Trail will extend from Boscawen to Pembroke. The northern section will follow the former Northern New Hampshire Railroad right-of-way, while the southern section will feature a riverside greenway trail. It will be fully paved, measuring 12 feet wide in downtown areas and 10 feet wide in other locations.
Downtown Detail: This is one conceptual layout of the ultimate full buildout of the Merrimack River Greenway Trail.
GSRT Overview: The Granite State Rail Trail will stretch from Lebanon to Salem, providing off road recreation and non-motorized transportation opportunities for thousands of families living in proximity of abandoned railroad corridors. This is a very, very long range goal that will be achieved by a number of trail advocacy groups like ours.
