Hiking, Walking, Nature Trekking
From scenic walks with spectacular mountain vistas to the challenges of the Long Trail and Camel's Hump, the Mad River Valley is one of Vermont's premier hiking destinations. The Long Trail provides hikers and backpackers with the opportunity to summit three of Vermont's 4000 foot peaks and the Mad River Recreation Path trail system offers walkers and runners the combination of great exercise and beautiful views. Our gravel roads provide yet more opportunities for getting out for a quiet country walk. Guided nature hikes and walks are conducted throughout the year and provide insight into the area's plant and animal life.
