Proposed Velomont Trail & Hut Network in southern Vermont. More than 84 percent of land in Vermont is private, which means that landowners are key partners in developing mountain-bike-specific and multi-use trail networks in the state. Kingdom Trails in northern Vermont, for example, exists on the properties of nearly 100 private landowners. Three withdrew their trails from that network in December 2019. In a statement at the time, Kingdom Trails acknowledged that challenges and tension points exist around traffic, congestion and pedestrian safety of residents and visitors alike. The Velomont Trail would rely on the goodwill of landowners, as well as partnerships with state and federal foresters, like Knox, who manage Vermont s public lands.
