The Conway Branch trail runs for 21 miles along an old rail corridor between NH-113 in Conway and Polly's Crossing in Ossipee. The trail is popular with snowmobiles and rail car enthusiasts; the tracks are active between Silver Lake and Boulder Road in Madison. There is no established trail surface for non-motorized use, the trail is better suited to vehicles than pedestrians.
