The Capital and Adirondack Regions boast many great places to run, from serene trails to quiet bike paths to tried-and-true roads. Here are some of our favorites. Want to suggest a place for us to add? Email us or DM us on Instagram (@fleetfeetalbany_malta).
Pitney Meadows Community Farm, Saratoga
Pitney Meadows Community Farm is a non-profit in Saratoga Springs. They recently purchased the last remaining farm within city limits to turn it into a community farm and education center. A group of dedicated volunteers and staff are doing many wonderful things to bring community, farming, education and recreation together.
Fleet Feet Albany and Fleet Feet Malta are supporting the development of the trail network that will increase the running terrain available in Saratoga Springs through this beautiful parcel of land. It is located on West Avenue, not far from the Saratoga Spa State Park.
Location: 223 West Avenue, Saratoga Springs
100 Acre Wood Trails, Malta
The 100 Acre Woods trails are located in the Luther Forest Technology Campus on land owned by GlobalFoundaries. The trails are the proud product of tons of hard work by the Roundabout Runners Club and many local runners and walkers who have built and maintained the trails over the years. The trails are mainly crushed stone and dirt, which makes it a great soft surface that isn't overly technical. The trails are roughly 2-3 people wide and are clear of overgrowth. It's a wonderful place to escape into shade and quiet! They also boast plenty of hills -- no better way to build your fitness!
