Vermont, on the Canadian border, is the perfect destination
for those who want to see new places without neglecting
their adventures. As it is a region that invests a lot in
agriculture and nature, the state is full of beautiful
landscapes and trees - this is why the place received
the title of State of the Green Mountain.
Montpelier is considered the smallest capital city in the
United States, but it is full of historic attractions and
eccentric attractions. The Winooski River flows through the
heart of the city and joins the charming center, the
picturesque shops, the hiking trails and the cultural
facilities, enriching the personality of the place.
'The Green Mountain State' - The epithet says what the
French explorer Samuel de Champlain felt: He called today's
Vermont 'Les verts mont' (The Green Mountains) - so it is
clear where the name comes from. Vermont is a, if not the,
classic Indian summer state that attracts crowds of visitors
every year who want to see the foliage change in the fall.
Maple Syrup is one of the key products made in
Vermont. On the one hand, the state is agricultural, but it
is also known for its marble and granite quarries. Vermont
is also the perfect country for outdoor freaks, whether
cycling, hiking, climbing or canoeing - there are endless
possibilities.
Attractions in Vermont
Green Mountains
The ecological attitude of the inhabitants has created a
green, fertile landscape with agriculture and numerous farms
and small farmers. The low mountain range of the Green
Mountains runs on a north-south axis from the Canadian
border to southern Vermont.
At the foot of these green mountains are idyllic villages
and small towns. Well-maintained cycling and hiking
trails invite you to explore this small state. Grains,
vegetables and fruit are grown in the fertile
valleys. Livestock farming includes horses, goats, cattle
and even some emus. Numerous wineries and breweries have
settled here. Farmers' markets, museums and traditional
country stores with their nostalgic offerings bring the past
to life.
Vermont is a special way of life, characterized by a
rebellious spirit, because everything here is different,
green and eco. Every season offers the opportunity to
explore this gentle green landscape. Everything is possible,
from mild summer to colorful autumn to snowy winter on the
ski slopes.
Killington ski area
Vermont has the highest snowfall rate in the East Coast
states. The Killington ski area is one of the best and most
modern in the region. Five terrain parks and 200 ski slopes
of different degrees of difficulty with après ski offer the
right program for every winter lover.
Lake Champlain
This lake, named after one of Vermont's founding fathers,
is a popular destination. Visitors can take boat tours, take
a stroll through the maritime area, enjoy a good meal in one
of the restaurants, go fishing or cycling.
Church Street Market Place
If you want to take a break from the exemplary ecological
lifestyle, visit Church Street Market Place in
Burlington. In this pedestrian area, this is modern
life still fed, because in addition to historical buildings
and a beautiful city, there are about 100 shops and
restaurants, the right shopping mood making and appetite.
Marsh-Billings-Rockefeller National Historical Park
This park is named after the three famous American
industrial families. The nature conservation-oriented site
is home to a sustainably managed forest, which is also the
oldest stock in the country. A 19th century manor
house clearly shows how people once lived here.
Bennington Battle Monument
It was here that the turn of the American War of
Independence was reached in 1777. A special experience is
the elevator ride to lofty heights, from where a panoramic
view of Vermont, Massachusetts and New York opens in fine
weather. |
