Kennebec River Rail Trail

A 'Capital' idea!

  If you were to walk this trail from the South, the entry to the Maine State Capital Building in Augusta is terrific.  The trail uses parts of bed where tracks used to be, and runs parallels an
existing, but unused, railroad track.  The entire route, six and a half miles, is very near the River.  The trail is very well
maintained, but wait for mud season to end (soon, maybe).
  When you look up this trail on www.traillink.com you may find the northern end extends farther than the article says, the trail now ends near the Maine State Housing Agency office building.
  Lace up!  Try some of these trails and stay in shape, walking is fun.

A great surface to walk on.

Mile markers too.

An open invitation!
