Long Trail Relocated East of Glastenbury Summit
A new route for Vermont’s Long Trail is being built east of the existing path between Woodford and Glastenbury to ease use of the rugged highlands. The relocation, planned to open by autumn, will extend the trail from Har mon Hill east to City Stream, include a 90 foot suspension bridge, and bypass the old Bolles Brook road, with Green Mountain Club and National Forest officials guiding the work.
