This Vine Street home was featured in the Painted Ladies book.

Boasting a sheltered location in a scenic river valley, West Newton is a lovely Trail Town to be discovered along the Passage." Bikers passing through will discover trailside businesses, including a bed and breakfast, bike shop, canoe outfitter, and several eateries, as well as a new visitor center that is a replica of the former train station.

West Newton Bridge is soon to be restored as part of the “Bridge to Tomorrow” Project, with a town square planned at the foot of the bridge. This riverfront development project will connect the trailhead with the historic downtown.

Hidden treasures to discover in town are the Historic West Newton Cemetery near the trail, West Newton Pizza Shop, and a Victorian home on Vine Street once featured in the Painted Ladies book. Across the bridge, you can explore the traditional downtown with a variety of unique goods and
services.

This quaint old town is a “diamond in the rough” and downtown West Newton is ripe for new business ventures.
