Windham Rail Trail Alliance

Windham Rail Trail Alliance Provides vision, development and promotion of the Windham Rail Trail, a scenic 3.9 paved rail trail.

4.1 mile rail trail located on the former Manchester and Lawrence rail bed. As of June 2006, 3.5 miles is paved (10ft wide) with 4 ft soft shoulder. This exceptional section of trail is rural, that runs through ponds, wetlands, ledges. Signature stretch is a 200 yd section of 35 ft ledges appropriately named "the rainforest."

WRTA – Dinsmore Bridge Construction – April 7, 2025

We are happy to announce that the Dinsmore Bridge redecking project will start on Monday April 7.

With an anticipated 3-week effort, we will close the section north starting at Roulston Rd to about 150 yards north of the Dinsmore Bridge construction from Monday April 7 to Monday May 5 with the extra week to account on bad weather.

The Rail Trail will remain open from the Depot to the 150-yard distance north of the construction.

A quick shout out and ask of a support for one of our key monetary partners, The Windham Endowment for Community Advancement.

If you are not familiar, NH Gives is a one-day opportunity to donate and promote local nonprofits.

The Windham Endowment is a participant, and we ask for your support. Over the years the WE has donated and participated in sponsoring our races and work along the trail, most recently the surface repair. This year the proceeds will benefit the work of the Windham Beautification Committee, currently working on improvements to the Town Center.
