I can only assume work was completed on this trail (or I was lucky). I found this trail to be lovely. It was not torn up, the wood chips are gone, and I did not find any rails to ride over. I really enjoyed riding this trail. I parked in the lot in North Haverhill, rode to the end, and returned. The top of the trail is beautiful with barns and mountains in the background. The bottom of the trail follows the river and even though it was late fall, the colors were amazing. I wish the trail was longer.
I’ve used this trail dozens of times, biking, walking and jogging in and around Montpelier. And now it’s expanded! I assume the TrailLink map will be updated to show it, but between Taylor and Main streets is connected, and the trail extends east all the way to Gallison Hill Road.
I started at the western trailhead. The surface for the first four miles is large diameter crushed stone. The same stone used in the trailhead parking lot. It's not the kind of crushed stone you put on a multi use recreation trail. The next four miles was basically rough single track. I rode my gravel bike based on the (lackluster) description above. I jumped off at 8 miles and returned to my car on back roads. The crushed stone listed on the surface description is very misleading. This would be fine with a mountain bike. Front suspension would be best.
We rented bikes by the trail head in Jeffersonville and took the rail trail into Morrisville, where we stopped into Black Cap coffee for a snack, then rode back. The trail was not busy and was a beautiful mix of farmlands, mountain vistas and river side views. It’s about 30 miles round trip. Really enjoyed this rail trail.
We rode today (8/31/21) from Hyde Park to Jeffersonville; the western part of the most recently built 1b section. The Trail is great overall, a few repairs have been made using oversized gravel adding a few spots of new and unnecessary roughness.
On the west end of this section avoid the Greenway after the Jeffersonville parking lot off Route 15 and approach Jeffersonville via Route 15 and Main Street. The Greenway after the Jeffersonville parking rail is a very rough trail and may cause you to miss the useful bike store and eateries on Main Street in Jeffersonville.
I have previously ridden the section from Cambridge Jct to Morrisville and enjoyed the ride through the Vermont Farms near the Lamoille River. Yesterday (August 25th) my wife and I rode the section of the which is now open and in terrific shape from the Swanton Railroad Museum ( where we had shady parking) to Sheldon Jct. where the Lamoille Valley RT intersects with the Missisquoi Valley Trail near Hwy 105. This was a fairly flat shady ride of 11.2 miles. We rode both ways and only passed one other bike on the trail. We were glad that the trail was level and shaded on this 90 degree day. There were no other parking areas between the railroad museum and Sheldon Jct and also no benches or picnic tables but we carried a picnic table cover and had our packed lunch on it in a shady, breezy spot that made for an ideal repast. It was a magical day for us and a terrific ride. Did I mention that it was also my birthday. It was a super ride and day!
First time on an e-bike although road bikes Will do just fine on this beautifully maintained flat trail. We rode from Johnson to the Morrisville end and back. The temperature was in the upper 80s but the ride was still perfectly comfortable.It is a very Straight trail but the landscape varies enough to keep it interesting.
This trail is a footpath not suitable for even Mt bikes. The bridge was washed away 3 years ago and one must ford the Zealand River on foot.
This is a very beautiful trail but be forewarned that it is a challenge. If you are used to flat trails this will be tough (but doable). My advice is if you want to get the toughest five miles done first - start at the flume gorge parking lot. After that first five miles i can't promise you that it will be all downhill but it might seem like it .... We walked up 2 or 3 of the hills but we're from flat NJ and NH definitely ain't flat. But again if you want a beautiful trail - as the ad says - just do it!!!!
Well maintained. Great signage. Beautiful area. Thanks!
We started the ride at the Flume visitor center. The nine mile trip up was challenging with many hills and turns. Had to walk my eBike up one hill. Return trip seemed to be 90% downhill and was a blast, thus we had 2 different rides on the same trail! Lots of great scenery on the way.
