Arms Forest
The old forest landscape of the “Arms Grant” rewards visitors with rare natural communities and brims with clues of centuries of land use history. Visitors will find an extensive trail network lined with unusual plants, glimpses of deer and fox, and old farm roads shaded by rich canopies of centurion oaks. A hidden quarry even connects us to a Burlington that was once the national center of marble manufacturing.
Trails form a network exploring the rocky heights and wetland lows of this natural area. Bikers are allowed on the blue "Multi Use" trails which can be accessed via the Greenway, North Avenue Alliance Church or Burlington Highschool.
Connection
A rare gem in the necklace of Burlington’s open landscapes, this 30-acre park is located in the New North End’s largest area of contiguous undeveloped lands, nestled between Rock Point, and the Intervale floodplain across North Avenue.
Access
Arms Forest can be accessed via the Burlington Greenway, the path starts just north of the Rock Point trailhead, you'll see it on your right. The forest may also be accessed via an entrance behind the North Avenue Alliance Church and Burlington Highschool.
