Get around

The village of Bellows Falls is small enough to get around easily by foot. It is connected to the surrounding towns by The Moover - an excellent low cost bus service. Some buses are equipped with bicycle racks which can handle 2 or 3 at a time.

Traveling from Rockingham to Chester is a popular route for the experienced road bike crowd however the town of itself is a sprawling area that is challenging to get around except by private car.
