Burlington’s Town Trails

January 27, 2014 by Steve Leave a Comment

Burlington’s Town Trails

I love Burlington hiking. There is a lot of it. Much of it great. But for years, it all seemed to be CFPA or Nature Conservancy or state land trails. And then… voila! The town purchased a beautiful property and the local land trust helped clear some trails and now we have some content to link below!

Johnnycake Mountain

Then, in late 2021, the town of Burlington recognized and mapped a ton of mountain bike trails in and around Nassahegon State Forest and Tunxis Trails. And all of the sudden, there was more to hike in town. My hobby is never done.

My Burlington Town Hikes:

Johnnycake Mountain
Nepaug Reservoir

NEMBA Bike Trails
I see no reason to hike these trails. I know that they are not very fun for hiking at all and are, at times, straight up stupid to hike. Also, They incorporate trails I’ve already hiked a lot. I’ll list them all here simply because I just read through them all and listed them – and there are more in the Nassahegon State Forest. There are plenty of hiking trails all around these biking trails. Been there, done that.
