Sucker Pond - Southern Vermont

Recommended Posts

Hey everyone!

We wanted to share a Vermont trail we had a great time on last fall. We ran Sucker Pond Trail outside Bennington, VT, and it popped back up while we were planning another Vermont trip this week. It reminded us just how much fun it was.

If you're looking for a trail in southern Vermont, this one is definitely worth checking out. It's rated 5/10 on the onX Offroad app and is only about 3 miles long, but don't let the length fool you. There are several long bog sections with standing water that make for a really fun drive. The bottoms are surprisingly rocky instead of muddy, so traction is much better than it looks.

While we were in the area, we also stumbled across an old abandoned cemetery on the other side of Bennington, which made for a fun side adventure.

It's not the most difficult trail you'll ever run, but it has enough water, mud, and varied terrain to keep things interesting without being overly technical. We'll definitely be back the next time we're in the area!

Has anyone else here run Sucker Pond Trail? We'd love to hear what you thought or any other Vermont trail recommendations.
