Newport Waterfront Recreation Path

The Newport Waterfront Recreation Path, located on Lake Memphremagog, is a great trail that visitors of all ages can enjoy. This waterfront recreation path is great for biking as well as walking, running, birdwatching or just exploring nature. The Path starts at the Newport, VT Gateway Center/City Docks downtown and follows the lakefront through Pomerleau Park, across the old railroad bridge, in front of the Waterfront Plaza to Prouty Beach, across the new connector bridge onto Bluffside Farm, and eventually connects to the Beebe Spur Rail Trail that hugs the eastern lakeshore of Memphremagog five miles to the Canadian Border. Maps of the trail are available at downtown businesses and the Information Center at the entrance to Gardner Park, and also on DiscoverNewportVT.com.
