Burlington Greenway – North Beach Section

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

From this section of the Burlington Greenway you can enjoy views of the North Beach, right off the path. If you want to stop for a break, it's a good spot for a swim or picnic. It has a sandy shoreline, restrooms, and a snack bar in summer. It can get crowded on weekends, but the lake views make it a worthwhile stop.

Granite Steps

Highlight • Structure

The Burlington Greenway Path has undergone a stunning transformation, and these Barre granite steps are a beautiful addition to the rehabilitation of the city's trail system. These steps not only provide easy access to the water, but also serve as a popular spot to take a break and enjoy the breathtaking scenery up close.

Burlington Greenway

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

The Burlington Greenway is an 8-mile paved path that hugs the Lake Champlain shoreline, offering stunning water and mountain views. It links downtown Burlington with parks, beaches, and neighborhoods. Don’t miss the northern stretch along the causeway and the seasonal bike ferry to the Champlain Islands. This section includes a boardwalk with signs advising cyclists not to ride, due to the narrow space and high pedestrian traffic.

Barge Canal

Highlight • Structure

Burlington's Barge Canal is a fascinating waterfront location, with its basin initially built in 1869 to transport lumber from the northeast. It is now a vibrant wetland ecosystem that supports diverse wildlife, including turtles, ducks, beavers, and frogs. The wetland plays an essential role in filtering some of the city's stormwater runoff, thus contributing to the protection of Lake Champlain. The only visible reminder of the barge canal's industrial past is the circa 1920 steel bascule bridge, also known as the "see-saw" bridge, located at the lake's outlet.

Blanchard Beach

Highlight • Beach

Blanchard Beach is a stunning sandy beach near Oakledge Park, perfect for anyone looking to soak up some sun and enjoy the outdoors. It is one of two beaches in Oakledge, the other being Oakledge Cove. The beach is close to various amenities, including restrooms, tennis courts, softball fields and picnic pavilions. The Burlington Greenway Path runs right along the beach with picturesque views of Lake Champlain, making it an excellent place to start or end a run any time of the day.

Colchester/Burlington bridge

Highlight • Bridge

We were looking for a access to the water abs a place to rest. Just before the bridge on the side to Burlington there is a little park, kayak drop, fishing area. Doesn't face the lake but is still very peaceful and pretty.
