Recreational Opportunities

Vermont is home to world class, four-season outdoor recreational opportunities in a setting that other areas can only dream of.

Our mountains are not just for skiing, snowboarding, or snowshoeing in the winter. Golf courses and mountain bike trails wind through them as well, and the Long Trail and Appalachian Trail offer unparalleled opportunities for hiking.

Lake Champlain offers water sports enthusiasts a playground whether their pleasure is sailing, kayaking, canoeing, power boating, or jet skiing.

But Vermont’s lifestyle is much broader than its outdoors. A vibrant cultural community spans the entire state, from artisans to community theater.

Whether it’s a coffeehouse in Ripton; an alternative movie house in the state capital of Montpelier; or a nightclub in Burlington, Stowe, or Killington, Vermont’s arts and entertainment scene has something for everyone.
