5 mi gravel Keene to West Swanzey Gravel route from Ralston St to Eaton Rd, Swanzey, Cheshire County, New Hampshire "Begins with asphalt, turns to gravel, then to dirt in the woods (still smooth travel dodging fallen branches), then it turns to gravel again. The rail trail continues south, but it becomes rough after West Swanzey (probably still rideable, but more a washboard feeling)." 1
2 mi gravel East Shore Road to West Shore Road Gravel route on E Shore Rd, Swanzey, Cheshire County, New Hampshire "East Shore Rd is newly paved (7/2020) from Lake Shore Rd to the campground. The rest of East shore and all of West Shore road are well maintained gravel roads." 1
8 mi dirt Winchester to West Swanzey Rail Trail Dirt route from Elm St to Eaton Rd, Swanzey, Cheshire County, New Hampshire "There are some rough spots near Winchester. Watch the trail closely for a concrete culvert that protrudes significantly above the trail. The trail progressively improves the closer you get to West Swanzey. It's doable with a gravel bike I think, but I rode a mountain bike with no real issues." 1 1 1
1 mi gravel Christian Hill Road Gravel route from Christian Hill Rd to E Shore Rd, Swanzey, Cheshire County, New Hampshire "From Shore Drive this is a well maintained gravel road. At the north side, where the road makes a sharp turn off of the ridge, the road turns back to asphalt."
