Stretching between two of its namesake cities in the foothills of the southern Adirondacks, the FJ & G (Fonda, Johnstown and Gloversville) Rail Trail runs for a total of 10 miles through Fulton County. It alternates between rural and urban settings , and is a great example of a trail that offers residents both a place to exercise and a safe, off-road transportation connection to access local parks, businesses and other community amenities. Plus, it’s a draw for tourists and visitors, especially during foliage season.

The FJ & G Rail Trail today consists of two separate sections. The main trail runs for eight miles through the cities of Johnstown and Gloversville, while the Vail Mills section runs two miles, ending in the village of Broadalbin.
