ADVENTURE ~ Local Activities
Welcome to a place where the people are as colorful as the topography.
While the explosion of Vermont’s red, yellow and orange foliage in the fall, green mountains in the summer, blue lakes in the spring and pristine white powder in the winter are truly something to see at Stowe, nature’s backdrop is only one reason to visit this world-class destination. Whether you’re running, strolling, shopping, rowing, climbing, skiing, golfing, or simply sitting, the area that surrounds Stowe Mountain Lodge has a cosmopolitan allure that will beckon you back again and again.
