Description

This one-half mile woods trail extends from the Champlain Valley Exposition to the crest of Pinecrest Drive. The path runs along a branch of Sunderland Brook between neighborhoods. It is adjacent to backyards, but retains a woodland ambience. Along the trail are large pine trees and some hardwoods.

Walkers should beware of the extensive poison ivy, an incentive to stay on the path!
