Hinesburg Area Recreational Trails (hart)
All trails are open to the public. Information regarding specific appropriate use (walking, skiing, shoeshoeing, biking and horseback riding) can be found on the Information and Driving Directions document for each area.
Most of the trails described below are maintained by the Hinesburg Trails Committee, a group of volunteers appointed by the Hinesburg Select Board. The Trails Committee meets monthly and welcomes input from the community, as well as help with trail maintenance work.
Remember, it is a privilege, rather than a right, when a landowner graciously allows access to their land. Please be considerate when using all trails which includes being familiar with the Hinesburg Animal Control Ordinance.
Hinesburg Trail Maps
All trail maps are available for free on the Avenza Maps App, which uses GPS technology to show your exact location on the trail. Available for both IOS and Android devices.
