Delta Park is a 55-acre peninsula in Colchester where the Winooski River empties into Lake Champlain that was conserved with help from The Nature Conservancy of Vermont. A bike bridge over the Winooski River connects the Burlington Bike Trail to the Colchester Bike Trail, altogether known as the Island Line Trail. Please respect the fragile habitat of the Delta and remain on designated trails.
Amenities include limited parking for non-bikers, an information board and brochure box, one picnic table with wheelchair access at the Park's road, entrance off Windermere Way.
The Island Line Trail passes through Delta park via a 12 foot wide, elevated walkway and provides bikers, in-line skaters, joggers, walkers, birders, and wetlands wildlife observers access to this restricted wildlife area.
The Driftwood Beach access trail is a short walking trail through a turnstile at the Windermere Way end of the park. The trail leads to a driftwood beach with views west across the lake to the Adirondacks.
Features of the park include:
