On a sunny day, you can't beat this lovely ride! P.S. I can't beleive someone used a Trail Link review to attack Democratic legislators for trail closures due to flood repairs. Remember that the president and the GOP have slashed funding for parks and recreational sites across the entire country. Park and trail maintenance is critical and without it, parks decline and decay. But the Trump Administration is prioritizing Billionaires over families who just want to hike and camp and bike in our beautiful hills and valleys. I hope Congress will come to its senses and go back to funding these parks ... they are our heritage and refuge.
The grift continues on this rail trail there is money to repair old unused rail station while the rail trail is closed from St Johnsbury this is what happened when Democrats run your state.
love this trail and am really looking forward to more good-weather days ahead. I managed to get out for a ride this afternoon after a quick rain shower moved through, and it turned out to be a decent day. Despite the recent rain—and even snow just two days ago—the trail was in great shape between Highgate and Fairfield. I rode 15 miles out and back for a total of 30 miles. Smooth ride, beautiful scenery, and well-maintained conditions. Can’t wait to be back out there again soon! Better weather is coming…
Some big hills and a few water crossings. Pretty difficult in the snow a few icy spots. Was still enjoyable.
We just rode the trail up & back with hybrids. No issues. Good hard pack gravel & sand. Rails & ties are removed. Good food at both trail ends. No one on the trail on first hunting season day.
The trail is beautiful ... and there are three trees that were blown down a few days ago. Clearing them out requires a chainsaw or a group of strong people. It is possible to walk around them. If possible, I will post some photos. It's unfortunate that I see no way of communicating this directly to the State of Vermont.
Plenty of parking at the Pondicherry Wildlife trail head. We ride fat tire ebikes. The trail presented little issue with some rougher, more narrow sections close to the refuge. There is a lovely viewing platform near the start of the trail. We rode in late September. The foliage was not peak but stunning none the less. The trail had only a few leaves and few puddles. Not the best for a standard bike but perfect for bikes with wider tires. We rode up to Randolf and turned around, 34 miles. not busy but we saw other riders, dog walkers, hikers and a couple of horse riders. Great views of the mountains when you break into a meadow or wetland. really fun. I took off a star because standard bikes might struggle.
We road 5 miles of the trail starting in Littleton.
But after 5 miles we turned back because ATV's have torn-up the trail.
This trail is OK for walking, but no longer OK for bicycles.
It is sad. It would be a nice trail if the ATV's had not destroyed it.
Trail closed at I91 westbound. DANGER Do not enter sign. Gate across trail.
Whatever the previous people experienced has been taken care of … the only obstacles are the barriers you go around preventing atvs from using the trail … it’s not a paved trail but it is very smooth for a natural trail… its absolutely gorgeous from Littleton to the nh border… today I am biking with my sister and brother in law and look forward to exploring the wonders of nature and enjoying every minute of it!
Local culture and true Americana… this is life as it should be!
