Vermont Profile
The state of Vermont is a beautiful land of green pastoral farms, tall trees, rolling hills, and winding waterways. A 270-mile long path known as The Long Trail snakes along the backbone of the Green Mountains, making for excellent hiking and overnight camping excursions along the way. Speaking of camping, there are over 100 campgrounds in the state just waiting for visitors to roast marshmallows, tell ghost stories, and enjoy the scenery and wildlife. Visitors might even be lucky enough to spot a moose or the elusive gray fox. However, for those that prefer more deluxe accommodations, there are plenty of high-end lodges, hotels, and bed and breakfasts scattered throughout the state. And after a good night’s sleep, golfers will likely want to tee off in some of the most visually stunning golf courses in the East, designed by the likes of Jack Nicholaus and Robert Trent Jones. For those into higher impact sports, Vermont’s many waterways and lakes are perfect for kayaking, canoeing, sailboarding, scuba diving, fishing, or leisurely tube rides. But nature isn’t the only splendid attraction in Vermont. It’s also a great place for concerts that attract popular performers to its intimate, small venues. Vermont ski lodges and nearby clubs are also great places to catch both established and up and coming musicians. On a different note, Revolutionary War buffs will also love Hubbarton Battlefield and Bennington Battle Monument. And after all of the activities, don’t forget to wake up early, catch the sunrise, and have nice big stack of pancakes, with a healthy helping of pure Vermont maple syrup.
