5 Ways to Enjoy the Best of Vermont in the Fall
There’s really no shortage of wonderful things to do in Vermont in the fall. Much of it, of course, revolves around exploring the outdoors and enjoying the colorful annual show Mother Nature puts on. However, enjoying Vermont in the fall is about more than taking great hikes or scenic drives. The atmosphere here is extraordinary, as we celebrate the changing of the seasons.
Even if you choose to relax in the comfort of our Vermont Bed and Breakfast, you’ll have plentiful opportunities to enjoy the natural beauty just beyond our doors. When you’re up for a little adventure, here are a few recommendations for our favorite ways to enjoy Vermont in the fall:
- Take a walk through brightly colored trees! Brattleboro has several casual walking trails, including the Retreat Trails that leave our Vermont Bed and Breakfast from the back yard. There, you’ll enjoy views of a picturesque pond ringed by foliage, along with forested trails and a historic farm. There’s even a 3.5 bird sanctuary to enjoy.
- If you want a bit more activity in your getaway, there are plenty of great fall hikes to take that offer breathtaking fall views. This is a great way to see the colorful landscape of Vermont in the fall! Recommended hikes include the fire tower at Molly Stark State Park, Mount Wantastiquet, and Mount Monadnock. We’d be happy to recommend even more!
- Biking through Vermont in the fall is also a striking way to explore the landscapes. Whether you want to enjoy a leisurely ride through downtown Brattleboro or meander windy country roads, we’re happy to help you get on your way. If you don’t want to bring your own bike, Brattleboro Bicycle Shop has rentals available. If you’d rather be on tour, we recommend a ride with Diverse Directions. They offer multiple cycling tours, from easy to more challenging.
- There’s nothing more magical than taking a scenic drive through Vermont’s windy country roads. Some great choices include Route 9, the Molly Stark Scenic Byway, the Brattleboro to Whitingham through Mount Snow loop, and The Connecticut River National Byway.
- Have you ever thought about taking a relaxing and romantic train ride through the fall foliage?. The Green Mountain Railroad, north of Brattleboro in the town of Chester, offers two wonderful fall foliage excursions. The round trip Rockingham ride is a 1-hour tour along the Connecticut River with views of two covered bridges and the Brockway Mills Gorge, while the Ludlow trip is 2 hours and travels through the Green Mountains and over a high trestle bridge.
