6-Day / 5-Night Bike Tours Northeast Kingdom

All of this superb cycling is enjoyed while staying at three lovely inns. The Edson Hill Manor has a warm, country feel and the Montgomery House Inn is a handsome 1803 Stagecoach Stop that features excellent dining and an always popular hot tub. We then stay two nights at the Highland Lodge, a supremely welcoming and relaxing family-run inn that Vermont Magazine says exudes “old-fashioned perfection.”

Stowe, Lake Willoughby, Caspian Lake, Greensboro and Vermont's famous Northeast Kingdom....this tour has it all! We begin near the sophisticated village of Stowe and then cycle through Smuggler's Notch into the meandering Lamoille River Valley. We then explore Vermont's Northeast Kingdom, the least settled and most rural, untouched corner of our state. Rural riding takes us past several lakes, highlighted by Lake Willoughby. Often referred to as the "Lake Lucerne of America," Lake Willoughby is famous for its deep clear waters and the twin peaks of Mt. Pisgah and Mt. Hor rising abruptly from either side. We also visit some quintessential Vermont villages such as Montgomery, Greensboro, and Burke; and visit Cabot Creamery "makers of the best cheddar in the world.”

You will surely find that the somewhat longer and more energetic days on this tour are delightful, and well worth the effort.
