Putnam River Trail
River Mills Heritage Trail
This approximately 2-mile biking and walking trail begins at Arch Street and winds its way north along the eastern shore of the Quinebaug River. The
trail runs adjacent to Kennedy Drive for about 2 miles before terminating at Providence Street. The path of the trail runs through woodlands, 2 parks, an
antique shopping district, and near revitalized mills. Five historic exhibits are located along the trail commemorating Putnam’s railroad history, textile mills,
and founding citizens. The river’s natural resources and The Great Flood of 1955 are highlighted as well. There are 3 bridges adjacent to the trail including a
200-foot pedestrian bridge built on the stone foundation of an old railroad trestle. Each bridge offers scenic views of the river.

High School since converted to the Town Hall. Then back to the western bank of the Quinebaug River for views of mills across and up the river before coming upon
the Morse Mill. On to Providence Street and its outstanding bridge views of mill dams and the prominent Belding/Powhatan Mill.Visit the display at Miller Park before
returning to Kennedy Drive and the adjacent Rhodes and Nightingale Mills. Follow the Putnam River Trail back to parking, shops and restaurants.
