Our most popular ride last year. Twenty miles total round trip on a level, paved, car-free bikeway that’s been called “everything a bike path should be,” it features pleasant riding along a “linear park,” with views of the river and old mills.
A brief stop at the free Captain Wilbur Kelly House Transportation Museum offers a glimpse of history. (Water and a restroom are available to small groups). A portion of the old canal is visible nearby.
Children under 18 are welcome if accompanied by parents.
