The trail measures 19 miles (31 km) [1] and has sections that are paved and unpaved.
It runs along an abandoned rail corridor of the former Hartford, Providence and Fishkill Railroad.
Long-term plans envision the Washington Secondary Rail Trail connecting with the Blackstone River Bikeway, the East Bay Bike Path, and the Moosup Valley State Park Trail in Connecticut.
