Mission

Squannacook Greenways' goal is to build, maintain, and promote the Squannacook River Rail Trail (SRRT) as a source of recreation and safe non-motorized transportation. The Squannacook River Rail Trail is presently under construction, with 2.4 miles of the planned 3.7 miles presently completed, and the last phase under construction. The stone dust trail provides a safe alternative to bike-unfriendly Route 119 and an enjoyable route for human-powered travel between important natural, historic, and cultural landmarks. The open sections have been proven to be extremely popular. The SRRT also has potential to become a long-distance trail extending to the Nashua River Rail Trail in Ayer, Massachusetts and to the Mason-Greenville Railroad Trail in New Hampshire. This rail trail would be used by the public without fees, as specified in Article II of our articles of incorporation.
