This stretch of unused railroad spans from Wilton to Bennington and is only open for use in the winter. The trail passes by scenic locations like Greenfield State Park. The trail is frequented by snowmobilers in the winter but is also open to hikers, snowshoers, and cross country skiers. The railroad tracks are still in place so the trail is best used when there is a considerable amount of snow to cover the tracks.
Trail conditions change often due to weather or maintenance schedules. Before you head out, click here for up-to-date conditions and closure information.
