About Vermont

Vermont is well known for its maple syrup. When visiting in the early spring a trip to a sugar house is a must do. Here you can see firsthand how maple syrup is made, straight from tree to bottle. You may even get to experience a northern treasure, sugar on snow. Maple syrup drizzled on fresh snow is a treat not to be missed! Vermont is also known for its many year-round outdoor activities. Skiing (down-hill and cross country), fishing, ice-fishing, hiking, hunting and mountain climbing are only a few activities offered. Wildlife viewing can be exciting. There are many spots where you can view moose in their natural habitat.
