The Bolton Firetower sits atop Bolton Valley Resort ski area and provides endless views of the Green Mountains and northern Vermont. The mountain is most popular for its winter skiing, but there are plenty of hiking and mountain biking trails that are popular during the dry season.

A bicycle highlight, even though cycling is forbidden there…

At 814 feet, Pease Mountain is nowhere close to being the tallest peak in the Appalachian Mountains. That being said, it is one of the most prominent points in the area, so it serves as a great viewpoint of the surrounding hills and Lake Champlain.

The Sunset Ridge Trail is one of the most scenic trails in Vermont and travels up southwestern side of Mt. Mansfield. This fantastic trail is relatively short and mostly above treeline. It offers phenomenal views of the Champlain Valley and the Mansfield ridge line and, as the name indicates, is exceptionally beautiful at sunset. There are several water crossings and scenic outcroppings scattered along this enjoyable trail as you hike up toward Mt. Mansfield.

Supposedly, the long, exposed ridge line of Mt. Mansfield, the tallest mountain in Vermont, looks like the profile of a man's face. This particular feature is known as Mansfield's Lower Lip. From the Lower Lip you get great views down the long, exposed ridge line that comprises Mt. Mansfield.

Mt. Mansfield looms over the small ski town of Stowe, Vermont, at 4,393 feet. As the tallest mountain in Vermont, Mansfield is a very popular and rewarding summit for any New Englander. Because of its popularity (there are almost 40,000 visitors every year), the delicate ecosystem has been severely affected. Mt. Mansfield is one of two places in Vermont where Arctic Tundra exists, so please try to stick on designated trails when visiting this summit. When relaxing on the summit, you get fantastic panoramic views across Vermont, and on clear days you can even see to the Presidentials in New Hampshire!
