Managed by the United States Army Corps of Engineers, the land of the Franklin Falls Dam spans across five towns and encompass over 2,500 acres of woodland. The area is particularly popular with mountain biking enthusiasts, with the trail system for mountain biking centered near the administrative offices. This trail system consists of around ten miles of multi-use trails, designed and built “by mountain bikers for mountain bikers.” Along with mountain biking, the Franklin Falls Dam is also known to be a great spot for a picnic, with plenty of shade and tables, as well as hiking opportunities.
