"The Vestal Rail Trail runs for nearly four miles through the town of Vestal along an abandoned right-of-way once used by the Delaware–Lackawana & Western Railroad. Today, the 12-foot-wide trail is paved for bicyclists, inline skaters, and wheelchair users (the trail is fully ADA accessible). An 8-foot-wide unpaved surface runs adjacent to the trail for walkers and joggers. On its eastern end, the trail offers access to the sprawling shopping and dining complex of Town Square Mall. As it heads west, the pathway parallels Vestal Parkway, but a thick barrier of trees shields trail-goers from the noise and sight of traffic."
