- Join me for my first solo bikepacking trip. I rode the Ammonoosuc Rail Trail from Woodsville to Littleton, NH and stayed at a KOA campground overnight. The trip started off with some exploring in Woodsville including the Bath-Haverhill Covered Bridge built in 1829. This bridge is located at the mouth of the Ammonoosuc River where it joins the Connecticut River. From here we followed the old Boston & Maine Railroad bed from Woodsville (a section of Haverhill) to Littleton 19.2 miles. The trail crosses NH Route 302 and the Ammonoosuc River several times. Scenic Highlights include two long bridges over the Ammonoosuc River and the Bath Covered Bridge (blt 1832) and great views of the mountains of New Hampshire. The total distance was 29 miles to the campground and another 14 back to my vehicle the next day. I had a great campsite right on the Ammonoosuc River.
Very nice, thanks
It a great trail, I need to ge back and do the new section to Littleton. Thanks for watching!
Well done; nicely filmed and edited for content.
Mathew, this is a great trail and fun to ride, glad you enjoyed it, thanks for watching!
That’s a cool railway trail.. thanks for sharing.
Tom, this was my first major bikepacking trip and I had been wanting to ride this trail for many years. It was very rewarding. They are extending it towards Littleton, so I'll have to go back and ride it again.
Great job with the videography...the work you put in to setting up the camera away and then riding through the scene really adds to the overall video! Thanx for sharing. I've been looking for a route for a first bikepacking trip and this may be just the ticket.
@ibrewalot thanks for the feedback. I try to mix it up and keep the scene changing. Thanks for watching. I have another bikepacking video coming out next week.
@@OutdoorsWithJohnUSA John, we are doing this route this weekend, staying at the KOA. Quick question...where did you park your car to leave overnight in Woodsville? Again, thanx for the video. Looking forward to recreating your weekend; looks like good weather!
@@ibrewalot I left my truck at Walmart in Woodsville.
@@OutdoorsWithJohnUSA Went without a hitch...beautiful weather, gorgeous scenery and the KOA campsite next to the river was perfect. Given it was our first trip, we learned many things to "not" do next time. :-) Thanx again for getting us started.
@@ibrewalot I’m so happy you had a positive experience. This was one of my favorite trips. I am hoping to do some other longer rail trail for bikepacking.
I did not know this existed. I look for river access but there is rarely a place to park.
This trail will someday link up with others creating a trail from the Maine all the way across Vermont.
