Bridge at the Green

Reviewed By kolbow - Northville, United States

Sometimes it's the simple things that catch your attention after you have slowed down on your trip. The covered bridge and white church with the fall colors is a perfect example. Only a few miles west of Arlington, it a must see.

Mount Equinox

Drive this scenic mountain which is also used as a outdoor classroom for the study of various species of plants and animals. At 5.2 miles, the Mount Equinox Skyline Drive is the longest privately owned paved toll road in the U.S. Those who prefer to hike can pick up a trail map at the Toll House. At the top of the mountain is our new Saint Bruno Scenic Viewing Center packed with info about Equinox Mountain and the Carthusian Monks. The private property which is 7,000 acres is owned by the Carthusain monks. A cloistered order of Catholic monks. There is the Catholic gift shop at the bottom of the mountain and also souvenirs from your trip.

A fantastic drive up the mountain with different views of the surrounding mountains from each lookout spot til you reach the summit. Wow! You can see for Miles on a good day! The leaves were beautiful and added to the wonderful views! You can check the weather at the top in a live feed at the shop at the base where you pay the entrance fee.

We tubed down the ‘Kill and it was absolutely beautiful! Some shallow areas we got stuck but it was part of the adventure! Loved seeing stunning ducks and a beaver swim across. Lovely!

The Chocolatorium

Reviewed By TrainManDan10 - Keene, United States

My wife and I visited this shop for the second time. We each had a large cup of gelato, each with two scoops of different flavors, all wonderful! Upon entering, customers had to wear masks and sanitize their hands. We sat at the small table in front of the store, watching the world go by and listening to the nearby brook as we savored each bite!

We stopped in on the last day they were open last fall. We always visited when we were in VT. We will miss the congenial owner and the Truck Driver cheddar--the best!

Sugar Shack

Reviewed By 2mrching

The Sugar Shack has the most delicious variety of pies baked fresh daily and priced reasonably. If they don't have the one you want when you get there, no problem. They will pop one in the oven and it will be ready to go in an hour warm and smelling delectable. The apple, walnut, caramel is YUMMY!
