      A modest sized trail network on the watershed property managed/owned by Manchester Water Works. There are several singletrack trails that are interspersed among a fire road network. The trail system is conveniently located adjacent to the Rockingham Recreational Rail trail that extends from the city of Manchester to Newfields, on the seacoast. The trails are mostly tight, twisty, rocky and rooty. The trails were maintained, and mostly created, by the organization FOMBA (Friends of Massabesic Bicycling Association) that existed from 1996 until 2022.
      Primary Trail Type: Cross-Country
      AKA: Formerly known as FOMBA
