Description
The Beebe Spur is a scenic 4-mile rail-trail running from northern Vermont's Newport towards the Canadian border. It follows Lake Memphremagog for most of the way, offering outstanding views of the water, as well as the Green Mountains. Although fairly level, mountain bikes are recommended due to the trail's packed gravel surface.
