Mountain Biking Sewalls Falls Rec Area
#54 of 114 mountain bike trails in New Hampshire
A quick area for a beginner or a short jaunt, a walking path to deactivated railroad. Past Sewall's Falls' Bridge is slightly more technical (mostly flat with roots and small rocks) a good place to start to learn trail riding. Along the river the whole way.

Exit 15W on 93, down North State St., right at Beaver Meadow Golf Course, left after Rail crossing. Either park at Monoro Trails before train tracks, or Sewalls Falls parking areas, Monoro Trails is 1 mile one way double track along pond, Sewalls Falls is 1.75-2 miles one way alond the man made canal under the bridge, you can continue across rails for about .5 mile or ride down rails (still tied) to loop back to parking area.
I click "Intermediate" only because there is two areas before the bridge that may scare a beginner. A quick sandy climb (and very quick drop from the other side, with roots at the bottom) and a hill leading to a wooden bridge over a brook. After the bridge, (trail continues past parking area under bridge) you will encounter more roots and rocks and just before you're on the rail bed, a quick left hander that's a steep, but quick, climb (subject to flooding in spring). You CAN follow the tracks a bit (these rails are inactive) however, they are still railed and tied with a narrow path beside. This area is where I spent most my teen years learning the basics of trail riding.
