April 1, 2024 - Hippo Best of Best 2024 Award
We are extremely proud to receive a Hippo Best of Best 2024 awards for Best Rail Trail! This is in combination of the Southern Tier Trail members of the Granite State Rail Trail, that includes Windham, Londonderry, Derry and Salem, a tremendous accomplishment! The Windham segment continues to record the highest usage counts for paved rail trails in New Hampshire! A big thanks to our valued enthusiasts who took the time to vote for the Windham Rail Trail. The popularity of the trail is a shared partnership and the WRTA remains dedicated to that vision and continued experience.

Please Read - Trail Etiquette
Since the porta potties were installed at the start of the season, there has been an undesired amount of trash that is not intended being left. If the situation does not improve, the Vendor will remove, which will leave us without the needed service.
With increased use we are experiencing disturbing behavior. We like dogs; We do not like the irresponsibility of certain owners. On-leash required by State Law. Great we have doggie bags that rival the colors of the rainbow. Pick them up please do not throw over the side. Someone does pick them up and remember it's probably not you. And please respect the trail and users.
Night riders: lights are handy. Like driving at night, high powered LED's make at least 2 people blinded. Tone 'em down.
Trash that includes gloves and masks we ask the same. Please bring out what you bring in.
