One of the best ways to explore all of the diverse beauty that the park has to offer is by traveling the famous Carriage Roads, where you will share the stunning views with plenty of other bikers, pedestrians and even horses.

Burlington Bike Path (Vermont)

The Burlington Bike Path allows urban explores to experience all that Burlington has to offer while remaining safe on designated bike paths for the majority of the route. You will be able to immerse yourself in nature as well as city life while on this path, because it provides amazing views of the Adirondacks and Lake Champlain.

Minuteman Bikeway (Massachusetts)

All of New England is filled with sites of historic significance, and maybe no state more so than Massachusetts.

It attracts tourists from all over the country who are interested in learning more about the pivotal Revolutionary War events that happened in the area.

Blackstone River Greenway (Rhode Island) This trail is part of a corridor project that is intended to provide natural pathways for animals traveling between Rhode Island and Massachusetts. This portion of the corridor contains an approximately 12-mile bike path that offers bikers innumerable picturesque views, so don’t forget your camera at home. It travels along historic canals, former railroad brides and even has convenient parking at several points.
