What To Expect

Trapp Family Lodge Outdoor Center

After Cold Hollow Cider Mill, we will drive to Stowe to visit the Trapp Family Lodge. The Trapp Family Lodge sits on 2,500 acres of land, with breathtaking scenic views of Vermont’s Green Mountains. The Von Trapp Family (from “The Sound of Music” fame) chose this location as their home because its scenery is reminiscent their native Austria. Upon arrival, you’ll be greeted by a welcome sign that reads “The Trapp Family invites you to share a little of Austria, a lot of Vermont.”

Stowe

Finally, our last visit of the day will be in downtown Stowe. With a population of just over 4,300 people, this village is home to many events throughout the Summer, including a hot air balloon festival and many different arts and crafts shows. Here you will find many local artisan shops featuring art, jewelry, clothing, gifts, and number of award-winning specialty foods. There is even a Ski and Snowboard Museum, of interest to those who enjoy downhill Winter sports.

Had an excellent time with Natalia!. Got a good view of the history of the Stowe area and we compared notes a bit about the differences from New Hampshire where I grew up. An excellent introduction to this area, and Natalia has many good facts and snippets of information about Vermont in general. Recommend.

The day spent on Natalia's tour was my favorite day of the Vermont trip! She knows the area so well and takes you to some beautiful and fun places. This is a must for those looking to get to know the state instead of just staying in one city in Vermont.

My trip to Vermont was spectacular, I visited Vermont in fall and got to witness beautiful fall foliage. We drove through Smuglers Notch and some other very interesting places. Burlington is a quint essential town/ city that doesn’t look like any state in America.
