Things To Do

The tour of the historic Lake Champlain is a favorite. With the foliage in season, schedule this in advance.
Ben & Jerry’s
Take a tour of the Ben and Jerry's plant in Waterbury, about a half hour from Burlington.
Mt. Philo State Park
Hike up beautiful Mt. Philo and witness the view of the Champlain Valley. This is a short hike (45 minutes) and for those who are not able, there is a road up to the top.
Shelburne Museum
There is so much to see at this museum. There are historic buildings, beautiful artwork and the Steamboat Ticonderoga. There really is a full day's worth of sites to see here. Check out the website to see the current exhibits.

Cedar Knoll Country Club
For those who enjoy golf, we are organizing a round of golf for Saturday afternoon at Cedar Knoll Country Club. This very laid back 27-hole golf club is where Johanna's mother, Juliette is a member. If you are interested in an afternoon round (sometime around 1 pm), please email Juliette who will organize the teams. After the round, we can sit on the deck and enjoy some beverages, snacks and enjoy the views! jclongchamp@gmail.com (Please include the name and number of players.)
