Long Trail

The oldest long-distance hiking trail in the United States, running the length of Vermont following the spine of the Green Mountains.

Covering 21.5 km, this demanding trail is best tackled by experienced walkers in good condition. Budget roughly 4 hours and 47 minutes or consider splitting it across two days.

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. Look for the LT trail markings to stay on the official route.

A Regional Walking Network (RWN) route, this trail weaves through the regional landscape connecting villages, viewpoints, and countryside.
