So ill be living just outside of Burlington, Ill be completely new to the area. Was wondering if anyone had some suggestions on where some good spots are to ride. Ill only be there for 11 months and wanna see some of the best places around that area. The trail fork app has been a great tool but id rather get some advice from the locals or anyone who knows the area. Thanks!

You are moving to the mountain bike mecca of the east coast. Stop in a bike shop, you'll be just fine. haha

You'll be in good shape. Within a few hours of burlington you have kingdom trails, burke mountain, killington, highland, and berkshire east just to name the big name popular mountains.

3. Mud City, Morrisville
4. HTF / Carse, Hinseburg
5. Cochrans, Richmond
6. Brewster River, Underhill
7. Kingdom Trails / Burke Mountain Lift Serve
8. Mad River Riders, Waitsfield / Fayston

10. Saxon Hill, Essex - only 10 minutes outside Burlington

That’s awesome to hear! I will definitely send you a message when I get into town. Looks like I’ll be living in Essex junction. Don’t know anyone out there so that’s a huge plus for me. Leaving here from Oregon June 17th and start work over there July 2nd at UVM. You will be hearing from me.

This is everything you need to know for Burlington area + northern Vermont. If you're up for a little drive Killingon and Pittsfield are definitely worth it too.
