Be Your Own Protagonist and Antagonist
Challenge yourself with outdoor adventures. With so many outdoor recreation areas to explore, the possibilities are endless. Take on the hobby of bird watching and see how many you can find during your visit, making sure to visit all the different locations and elevations available to you. Invest in a quality compass and map, restoring the lost art of navigation minus the technological advances we’ve come to rely on. Throw on your swimsuit and hike to a favorite swimming hole (Twenty Foot Hole and Buttermilk Falls are two local favorites). Bring a blanket and find a spot under one of Vermont’s famed sugar maple trees to host a picnic with local delicacies (think maple treats and fresh Vermont cheese from the local Green Mountain Sugar House). Or take your picnic game up a notch and stop by Killington Market to grab a selection of local wines to host a private wine tasting at your own preferred destination.
