Description

The Pittsford Trail System, also called the Railroad Loop Trail, provides access to the Erie Canal, town of Pittsford, and shopping and business district in the quaint New York village. A short segment follows part of the Erie Canalway Trail. Most of the Pittsford Trail, however, passes through a wooded corridor behind tidy suburban back yards and provides access to the Pittsford Shopping Plaza.

Parking and Trail Access

You can access the trail from Pittsford Plaza and near the intersection (south) of Monroe Avenue and Clover Street. A small parking lot is available at approximately 364 French Road, where the trail crosses the road. You can also park at the shops on Village Lane.
