Vermont Bikepacking - The Missisquoi Valley Rail Trail (Part 1)

Спорт

Is it worth driving almost to the Canadian Border just to ride your gravel bike on unpaved rail trails? Can you make a multi-day trip out of it? The recently completed Lamoille Valley Rail Trial is the longest single trail in New England. If you combine it with the Missisquoi Valley Rail Trail, you have a destination for sure.

    This looks like a great bike trail. Beautiful scenery and sounds nice how you can stop in the various towns or camp at the state park.

    Glad you enjoyed it Ken! I’m learning so much in DaVinci Resolve. It’s a powerful tool. Just the Quinebaug in very wet conditions and another section of the Shenipsit. I know you enjoy the blue blazes.

    Live in Fairfield and just a little above the LVRT. Ride the trails all the time. Those hills to Carmi are no joke. Nice ride down the next day thou. Take care, Al

    Lake Carmi was a beautiful place to camp but that hill was a difficult climb at the end of each day.

    This was fantastic what a great trail 93 miles wow and yes the scenery was fantastic! Could only imagine the difference all the weight would make especially up hill. The Tuba on the back LOL glad you pointed that out that was funny! Great area to end up at and you guys had to be hungry the quick meals actually sounded good! This is a great trip thanks for sharing!

    This one was more like an adventure due to the length of time we spent. It was my longest (number of days spent and miles ridden) trip. Having two freinds join me made it even better. In September we are planning an even longer trip from DC to Pittsburgh. It’s like RVing only it’s easier to park your bike. 😂
