Lyndonville, VT (NW area)
 

I will be in this town 2 days, beginning of October. What is there to do on my two day stay? We have our own car as we are driving from Maine to Niagara Falls & we are staying at a B&B for a few nights due to long driving time & leaves will be changing. Thanks

The NEK is a very rural, yet beautiful part of VT. What kind of things do you like to do? The Kingdom Trails is an awesome network of biking trails-HQ are in East Burke. There is a nice natural science museum in St. Johnsbury-The Fairbanks Museum & Planetarium. Be sure to drive up to Lake Willougby-gourgeous. Take the autoroad to the top of Burke Mountain. Drive up 114 between E. Burke and Island Pond-maybe you'll see a moose. Visit Dog Mountain in St. Johnsbury if you love dogs and/or are a fan of artist Stephen Huneck. Drive over to Cabot and visit the Cabot Creamery.

A few more suggestions-Franconia Notch in NH is only 45 or so minutes away. Great hiking, biking, walking, scenery etc. You can the tramway to the top of Cannon Mountain.<BR>FYI...NEK stands for Northeast Kingdom, which is the part of Vermont Lyndonville is in.

I have been to Franconia Notch, NH as my ex's family lives in Berlin. It was beautiful when we went mid October MANY years ago.<BR>Can you rent bikes to go on biking trails? We love to bike and do so at home in Ft. Lauderdale. Thanks Again!

Jody,<BR><BR>There's a beautiful bike trail that runs from Cannon Mtn. to The Flume visitor center. It is absolutely beautiful, and all downhill going south. <BR><BR>You can rent bikes right at Canon Mountain.

Jody,<BR>You should also be able to rent bikes at East Burke Sports (I'd check ahead of time though) to use on the Kingdom Trails in/around Lyndonville.
