A map of Northampton and Easthampton showing existing segments of the Manhan Rail Trail, which connects the two towns in a C shape. The Connecticut River meanders on the right side of the map. An east-west spur of the Manhan Rail Trail in Easthampton, which forms the bottom of the "C" shape, would be extended north towards downtown Northampton in an upcoming project. A dotted straight line indicates the location of that project. The dotted line stops just south of downtown Northampton and runs alongside the Silvio O. Conte Wildlife Refuge next to the river.
