This week we are starting from Hamilton Center for a beautiful route that reaches some familiar spots and covers some less traveled roads.

Both route options start at 15 Walnut, go through Beverly Farms and Manchester, then back around Essex and Hamilton. The long route includes a short excursion to the scenic Essex River.
