Quechee Gorge
Very cool natural gorge - one of the best in Vermont! Easy to explore for both adults and kids. Highly recommend making this part of your trip if time allows, though note that it is about 50 minutes north east of Okemo Mountain Resort.
Outer Limits Brewing
Great little brewery with great food, people, and obviously beer.
Buttermilk Falls
Quick and easy "hike ~ 100 yards" to some beautiful waterfalls; part of the Okemo State Forrest. Make sure you head to the trailhead parking lot. Its a dead end road; The top of the 3 sets of waterfalls begins at the end if the street. Great swimming spot!
Echo Lake Vista Hike
1 mile easy hike in Plymouth State Park with nice views of Okemo Mountain and Echo Lake. Fishing is also encouraged.
Green Mountain Sugar House
Get your authentic Vermont maple products here and a glimpse into the maple sugaring process!
Worthy Kitchen
Awesome place for lunch. The local craft beer selection is top notch. As a bonus its located in the town of Woodstock, which is worth at least driving through.
Long Trail Brewing Company
One of Vermont's Largest breweries. Tours, samples, and food.
Appalachian Trailhead (trail to summit of Killington Peak)
This was the fifth and final < 4000' summit in Vermont that we completed. This Hike is not for beginners and takes about 3/4 of a day to complete. For those that do not wish to hike but want to see the incredible view from the top; Killington Resort runs a ski lift to the summit.
