Champlain Valley Trail (Ticonderoga to Westport)

This section follows State Route 9N, providing sweeping views of the Adirondack Mountains, Lake Champlain and rural Essex County.

Covering 44.3 km, this is a true long-distance trail best approached as a multi-day journey through varied terrain.

This linear trail moves from one end to the other without looping back. A return journey by transport — or retracing the path — is needed to get back to the start. The trail is officially waymarked as CVT, so look out for the trail markers along the way.
