Take the Winding Trail
VERMONT INVITES YOU OUTSIDE
Robert Frost had it right: take the road less traveled. Vermont’s trails, back roads, and open landscapes invite discovery around every bend. The fork in the road, the café stop that becomes an afternoon, the unexpected detour — these small moments reward curiosity. Finding your own path brings surprise, perspective, and the quiet satisfaction of seeing where it leads.
The Scenic Road
The best route is the meandering one. Roads that wind through mountain passes. A covered bridge you didn’t know was there. A farmstand selling pastries and peaches. These experiences are just the beginning; the rest reveal themselves when you take the winding road.
8,000 miles of trails
The trailhead is just the beginning. With six(ish) seasons, different activities pull you outside. 20 downhill ski areas. More than 800 lakes and ponds. See what you find along the way. Usually, that’s the whole point.
Vermont Itineraries
Fourteen regions. 252 towns. We have a few cities, too. Here’s your starting place as you plan your Vermont vacation. Discover 3-day getaways, downtown itineraries, and trip ideas tied to farms and art.
Farm to Table? We Just Call It Dinner
Vermont’s been doing farm to table since before it had a name. With over 6,500 farms, fresh, local, and ridiculously good products aren’t a trend, it’s traditionally how Vermonters eat. Around here, knowing where your food came from is as much a part of the experience as what’s on the plate.
