Need to Know

Try to catch the train ride at the end. It's about an hour up and back. It's called the Belfast and Moosehead Lake train.

Runner Notes

It's a great trail for running. Very firm and even and flat.

Description

A section of old railroad bed was recently converted to a greenway. It's a wide and well-maintained trail. The surface is packed gravel, great for walking, running, or biking. It's out-and-back. The station for the Belfast and Moosehead Lake scenic train is at the end, so if you plan it right, you could run to the station, and enjoy four more miles up the line and back.
