Pittsford Trail Network

These trails are open to the public free of charge and provide recreational experiences for residents and visitors alike through all seasons of the year. Enjoy walking, bird watching, jogging, snow-shoeing, hiking, and cross-country skiing. Trails are marked and traverse open fields, meander along rivers and waterfalls, and course through woodlands. This trail network has been developed and maintained by volunteers with support of the Town, private landowners, and by grand funding from the State of Vermont.

The Pittsford Trail Network is a sensitive ecological environment. While you are its guest, please remember to treat it gently and take care not to litter, spoil brook waters or disturb the plant and animal life.
