This is a great route granting your fill of great views of the lake, while getting a solid 3.5 miles of running in. All the while, this is only a few minutes off of I-89.
Features: Fall Colors — Lake — Swimming — Views
Entry to the park is $3 per person from May 8 - Columbus Day. The rest of the year, the park is free to use.
Runnable, but with lots of trees and roots across a good portion of the route.
From the trailhead, stay right onto the
Muhley Trail. After ascending the hill, follow the sign to do the
Island View Trail. This will take you to a great overlook of Lake Champlain and meets back up with the
Muhley Trail.
Continue down this trail to the
Cedar Point Trail, which overlooks the cove before joining back up with the
Muhley Trail/
Beach Bypass Trail. Follow the
Beach Bypass Trail to the
Ledges Trail, which will take you back to the trailhead.
Overall, these trails are fairly well-maintained. The
Muhley Trail and
Ledges Trail have a decent amount of rocks, but nothing that requires more than careful stepping to safely navigate.
