The 127 Bike Path is a 3 mile paved trail that connects the Old North End with the Ethan Allen Homestead. It is a section of the “Burlington Wildways” area which is a trail that spans from Salmon Hole to the Burlington Bike Path. The 127 Bike Path is a very quiet area that is great for biking on paved trails right in Burlington. The path begins on Manhattan Drive and is a paved and relatively flat trail until reaching the Homestead, where the trail ends. Once you reach Ethan Allen if you choose, you will continue on the Burlington Wildways trails. Or, if you choose to begin your bike ride on the Burlington Bike Path, you can intersect with the 127 as a convenient way to get to the trail right from campus.
