WRENegades Rail Trail Walk with xNHAT
RSVP here for this free event!
We're celebrating the newly resurfaced section of the Ammonoosuc Rail Trail! Walkers, runners, bicyclists, dogs and horses can now enjoy smooth, solid ledgepack on the Rail Trail all the way from Industrial Park Road in Littleton to Oxbow Drive in Bethlehem.
Marianne Borowski of Cross New Hampshire Adventure Trail (xNHAT) will lead a WRENegades walk on the newly resurfaced portion of the trail. We will meet at the Rail Trail Village parking lot and walk the newly resurfaced portion of the Rail Trail out to Oxbow Drive in Bethlehem. We'll learn from Marianne about what resurfacing entails, and about xNHAT.
We can meet at the Inkwell Coffee House before our walk to fuel up!
All are welcome at this fun and free event. We will meet at the parking lot behind the Inkwell at 24 Beacon Street in Littleton.
