Things to do in Vermont, United States: The Best Forests

April 10, 2022 Rebbecca Marino

Whether you’re exploring Vermont’s covered bridges, visiting Quechee Gorge or skiing at Killington, you’ll find Vermont to be picture-perfect. If you’re the outdoorsy type, you’ll love Vermont. In winter, of course, there’s plenty of skiing and snowboarding. In the warmer months, however, Vermont offers plenty of opportunities for hiking, biking, fishing and boating. If you enjoy boating, swimming and fishing, a vacation rental on Lake Champlain might be perfect for you.

Mount Tom

Small mountain located in Woodstock.

Reviewed By tmueller19 - Narragansett, United States

Took the trail from Faulkner Park. Easy grade with lots of switchbacks. Couldn't walk on the groomed trail to the lake after reaching the summit but still worth the hike.

Green Mountain National Forest

The Green Mountains offer among the best fall foliage viewing, pleasing both hikers and those on the many scenic drives.

We took a picnic to Lara Falls in Green Mountain National Forest yesterday and had the best time! In our group were a three-year-old, a six-year-old, a 35-year-old and a 65-year-old. We all were able to hike the uphill trail with no problems. Many beautiful overlooks and places to wade in the stream along the way. Mosquitoes were a problem in the shaded areas and there was some mud from a recent rain, but you can do the hike in sneakers. Highly recommended!

Reviewed By Jake23121 - New Jersey, United States

This is a beautiful 2 miles hike through the woods. It’s dog friendly, peaceful and scenic. There were not many other hikers when we went. It’s a shaded path, which offers some protection.

This was one of the three trail systems we mountain biked on our honeymoon and I don't think I have ever had more fun mountain biking. Visiting from MD< these trails were fast, flowy, well thought out and maintained!
