Madison has miles of maintained trails for hiking, biking and jogging in the summer months and cross country skiing and snowshoeing in the winter.  The Town's local Trail Committee is directed by Shauna Albert and John Harlow and works to maintain, expand and promote our local trail system.  If you would like to serve on the trail committee contact the Town Office at 696-3971.
