Join the Nashua River Wild and Scenic River Study committee and Squannacook Greenways for a guided tour of some of the beautiful sections of the Squannacook River connected by the rail trail. This will be an out-and-back walk of about three miles, starting at the southeastern end of the planned rail trail, although participants can turn back at any point or extend the walk. Along the way, we will explore side trails to the riverfront and learn about the Wild & Scenic River project and progress on the Squannacook River Rail Trail. Please note that some of the terrain we will walk is hilly and uneven.
