    We got to see a train, a plane, eyeballs, and a knockoff Loch Ness monster. Deducted one point…read morebecause Champy was smaller than advertised.

    Thanks to Rick B. for reminding me to write a review for this beautiful path in Burlington. I was…read morelooking for a review to write for the Island Line Rail Trail, but this seems to be the same thing. From a runner's perspective, I don't search for bike paths to run, to let the cyclists have their routes, so I searched for best runs in Burlington and found the Island Line Rail Trail. What a gem! There are some parts where you are running through neighborhoods, but it's relatively well labeled so you don't get confused, like some other paths in the area. After you run or bike past Airport Park to the gravel portion and marble causeway, you'll reach what's arguably the most picturesque portion of the path to see beautiful views of Lake Champlain. When you get into the Colchester Causeway, you're in the lake - going for a few miles, until you reach a gap. If you care to do so for a small fee, take a short bike ferry and continue along for about another mile. Then, turn around and go back. You'll see neighborhoods and parks, cross the Winooski River on a picturesque bridge, possibly see wildlife like egrets (beautiful!) and herons and even a bald eagle (locals told me about the eagles). Different parts help you see the Lake, but also to just see Burlington's green spaces. Part of this path is run during the Vermont City Marathon, if you look down in the southern portion of the trail, you can see the markings. Even if you're not a runner, this is such a treat for someone who lives here or is visiting - because it's hard to get lost, you don't really need a map, and it's a good long 13 or so miles to just be in nature. So, just find the nearest connection to where you are and get onto the path - you'll enjoy it, wherever and for however long your journey.
