Cycling

One of Western Massachusetts’ highlights is the Manhan Rail Trail. This 4.2 mile multi-use recreational path stretches from South Street in Easthampton, MA to Mt. Tom Junction at the Route 5 CT River boat launch (right next to D. Hotel Suites & Spa), with a connecting on-road bike lane to downtown Northampton.

Please inquire for the use of one of our bikes or assistance renting bikes at a nearby vendor.
