Explore The Trails
The hiking trails of the northeastern region of Vermont are often challenging, beautiful and remote, offering views of dramatic landscapes, beautiful lakes, and abundant wildlife habitat.
In addition to ADA, hiking, snowshoeing, and nordic skiing trails on our East Charleston property, we work alongside partners and use our more than three decades of trail building experience to help build, maintain and improve trails around the region. Learn more about our various trail initiatives below.
