Vermont has many attractions, no matter what season. Visit during the flowery summers, or in the spring when blooms are just showing their heads. Venture here in autumn when the mountains are bathed in color, or in winter when ice and snow create a winter wonderland. Whenever you visit, be sure to have this book in hand.
From cycling on backroads and hiking along ridgetops to swimming in tranquil lakes and skiing on powdery snow, Beth Dugger introduces you to the many adventures of Vermont. Recommended accommodations include family-run B&Bs, secluded log cabins and five-star resorts. Selected restaurants cover everything from roadside BBQs to intimate dining rooms to picnic suppliers. The informative text is complemented by detailed town and regional maps, as well as photos.
In a special arrangement, the publisher has authorized Vermont.com to reproduce sections of the book, providing valuable resources and information about travel and recreational activities available in the great State of Vermont.
