The Burlington Waterfront is also a great place to walk, watch boaters, or eat ice cream while sitting on a swinging bench. You can rent bikes or kayaks or visit the Echo Lake Aquarium and Science Center. Additionally, the Burlington Bike Path is a 7.5 mile paved trail alongside Burlington’s downtown lakeshore that links six major waterfront parks.
