Lyndon
What to Expect:
This ride covers the hills of the west side of Lyndon. And by covers the hills, we mean it goes up and down…a lot! But the views are well worth the climbs. The ride starts at the Northern Vermont University Trails Parking and then heads to the, you guessed it, hills before looping around, crossing a historic covered bridge and heading up McGoff Hill back to the University.
