Itâs getting easier for people to tour the Robert Frost Interpretive Trail in Ripton, Vt.
The trail in the town where the famous poet spent many summers teaching and writing has seen dramatic upgrades to improve accessibility.
It now boasts a wider path with flatter, more secure surfaces for seniors and those who rely on mobility aids.
The trail is in the Moosalamo National Recreation Area, a 16,000-acre section of the 400,000-acre Green Mountain National Forest.
All along the trail, visitors encounter examples of Frostâs poetry, including whatâs probably his most famous: âThe Road Not Taken,â which is about those two roads that diverged in a yellow wood.
