About Laconia Rail Bikes

Laconia Rail Bikes, run by Granite State Railway, sends four-seat pedal rail bikes out of the 1892 Laconia Railroad Station at 15 Veterans Square. The 5-mile round trip follows an 1848 rail line along Lake Winnisquam, is mostly flat and takes about two hours with a longer break by the lake. You book the whole bike for up to four riders and do all the pedaling, since the Laconia bikes have no motor assist. Riders must be at least 48 inches tall and under 250 pounds and wear closed-toe shoes, and each bike needs one rider 18 or older. Rides run May through October, and the station is closed Tuesdays. Free parking is on both sides of the station, but downtown spaces fill up, so arrive 45 minutes early.
