The trail passes through pretty countryside and there are places along the trail to have a picnic, fish, and stop for refreshments at stores.
The trail is open to walkers, bicyclists and horseback riders, snowshoers, skiers and snowmobiles. Trail access for the northern section is at Castleton State College or along Main Street in Castleton and in Poultney village adjacent to the old train station on Depot Street. Trail access for the southern section is at West Pawlet village on Egg Street and at the connection of Route 153 and Hebron Road.
