Slate Valley Trails

Score4.9

A gentle multi-use rail-trail along the Poultney River and through former slate-country woods — great for river reflections, seasonal foliage, textured slate outcrops and remnants of local quarry history. Best at golden hour and during fall color; overcast days bring out slate textures and saturated greens. Trailheads have roadside parking (check town signs), mostly flat and accessible by foot/bike; bring waterproof shoes after rain. No entry fee. Weekdays are quieter; pair a visit with nearby R
