Vermont Travel Guide

Green Mountains of maple syrup, skiing and cheese

📍 Destination Overview

Vermont is defined by the Green Mountains running its full length — one of America's greenest states. Fall foliage is world-class; winter brings excellent skiing at Killington and Stowe; spring is maple sugaring season with sugar shacks to visit; summer features cheese makers and craft breweries. Burlington on Lake Champlain is the largest city with a vibrant arts scene. Vermont retains its rustic New England character without big-box stores.
