Centennial Woods Natural Area

Got in town for a work trip and wanted to stretch my legs. This is a beautiful woods and a great example of what rural Vermont is all about. Enormous maple trees and beautiful foliage. Highly recommend.

It's tick country! I got my first tick bite here. Also the trails are steep and boring with not much to look at. This is my least favorite hiking spot in Burlington.

There is pretty much no one ever hiking here. The trails wind all over the area so keep track of where you are if you need to find your way back again.

Neat little gem in the heart of Burlington that I otherwise would not have even known existed, if it were not for a friend that mentioned something about it the other day. I had no idea where to park my car, but my son and I hopped on the trail and trekked through the woods for about two hours looking all around. Pretty cool trail system lots of turns and different paths to choose. I feel like this is something that a lot of people I've talked to don't even know exist oh, but then I mentioned it to another friend whose only lived here for a couple years and they know exactly what I'm talking about and where it is. I've been here for almost 20 years and had no clue how silly but pretty cool.

Beautiful, quiet place right in Burlington. Easily walk for 30 minutes or 2 hours. Some steep climbs to get the heart pumping, boardwalks, fairly well maintained paths. Some parts a bit overgrown. Nice to walk because there are not many people who go here.
