The Manhan Rail Trail will be an 8 mile multi-use path stretching from the southern border of Easthampton MA to Mt. Tom Junction at the Route 5 CT River boat launch, with a connecting branch to downtown Northampton. The trail will eventually link with the Norwottuck Trail to UMASS and Belchertown and to the Northampton Bike Path to Williamsburg. The paved trail is being designed for use by bicyclists, walkers, joggers, roller-bladers, cross-country skiers, baby strollers, and wheelchairs.
