Burlington Bikeway, Burlington, Vermont

During our short stay in Vermont, we took the time to drive the 36 miles to Burlington in order to ride our bikes on the Burlington Waterfront Bike Path. Starting at Oakledge Park, this 7.5 mile route runs from the southern end of Burlington to the northern end at the Winooski River. At this point, it connects via the bike path bridge to the Colchester Bike Path that follows the Lake Champlain shoreline, offering gorgeous views of the lake and Adirondack Mountains. We lucked out and picked a picture perfect day for riding. Not too hot, a slight cooling breeze, puffy clouds, and many places along the trail to stop and watch the boats and ferries dotting the lake and take in the gorgeous views.
