Ponds and Forests

This ride goes from Bradford (a historic village in South Haverhill) to nearby Groveland, then continues through Boxford State Forest on quiet local roads not often travelled on NSC routes. The short and medium rides turn back toward Bradford without crossing Rt. 114. The long route continues in a loop around Andover with a few urban streets and is very similar to the “Hills and Dales from Ballardvale” ride. You’ll ride by several ponds. A short distance after starting you’ll ride for 13 miles through Boxford State Forest and Harold Parker State Forest.
