Things To Do
Lye Brook Falls Trailhead
Enjoy a two-hour hike to Lye Brook Falls through the Green Mountain National Forest in Manchester. The trail follows a former logging railroad up a gradual slope, paralleling Lye Brook. The cascading 125-foot Lye Brook Falls is a great reward! The trailhead is located just five minutes from the Wilburton, off East Manchester Road. One of our favorites!
Equinox Pond Road
A wonderful hike for all levels! Enjoy an hour-long, flat hike around the pond, or spend three hours climbing to the summit for extraordinary views. To get there, take the first left after the Equinox Hotel onto Seminary Avenue. After you pass Burr & Burton Academy, take a right onto West Union Street and park at the trailhead.
The Long Trail
The Long Trail is the oldest long-distance hiking trail in the U.S.A. It inspired the Appalachian Trail, which continues for 100 miles through southern Vermont. You can find access to the trail nearby off Route 30 on the way to Bromley. There is a parking lot on the left side of Route 30.
Stratton Mountain / Bromley Mountain
Take a chairlift or gondola to the top and enjoy hiking down the mountains. If you hike up Bromley, you can ride the Alpine Slide down for free! Stratton also offers a charming village with cute shops and plenty of dining options.
