Rail-Trails New England:

Vermont
There Are Now More Than 13,00 Miles Of Open Rail-Trails Across The Country.
With 60 rural, suburban, and urban trails threading through 622 miles, Rail-
Trails New England covers Maine, Vermont, New Hampshire, Rhode
Island, Massachusetts, and Connecticut. Many rail-trails are paved and run
through the most scenic parts of town, such as the 12-mile Island Line Trail
in Burlington, Vt., skirting the citys waterfront before jutting three miles out
onto a lake. Some delve into the particular history of an area, like the
Massachusetts Phoenix Rail-Trail, where the first naval battle of the
American Revolution was fought offshore in 1775. Others offer an escape
from city life, such as the East Bay Bicycle Path, Rhode Islands first rail-
trail, which runs 14 miles from Providence to Bristol and provides stunning
views of Narragansett Bay. This two-color book includes succinct

descriptions of each trail from start to finish, plus at-a-glance summary
information indicating permitted uses, surface type, length, and directions
to trailheads for each trail.
