3-Day / 2-Night Bike Tours Norwich Inn - NEW! Norwich, Vermont

This new tour explores the lovely scenery, exquisite villages, and prosperous farmland of the meandering Connecticut River Valley.

Your home for the two nights is the The Norwich Inn. Norwich is a lovely village famous for its brick and clapboard Federal-style homes, and the inn has been its centerpiece since it started serving travelers in 1797. The inn has wonderfully comfortable rooms, large cozy common areas, a superb pub, and excellent dining. They even make their own handcrafted English ales on premises.

Saturday's ride takes us through the small village of Etna, through Hanover Center to Lyme. This small village has an exceptionally beautiful town common surrounded by historic buildings, including a 200-year-old Congregational Church. From here we will ride down to the edge of the Connecticut River and bike along lovely River Road into Hanover. Hanover is a vibrant town with a great array of fine shops and craft galleries and is the home of picturesque Dartmouth College. On your way back to Norwich you may want to bike the short side trip to the great bakery store run by King Arthur Flour, or visit the friendly Norwich Bookstore, and explore Dan and Whit's, a quintessential Vermont country store.

Sunday you can choose from a number of options including a short loop ride out to West Norwich or a longer ride along the Vermont side of the Connecticut River, visiting Union Village before taking a view-filled ridge ride back to the inn.
