4 Days and 3 Nights
The combination
of canoeing and walking allows us to fully discover this
magical valley. We will gain an understanding of why Norman
Rockwell, Ethan Allan, and Dorothy Canfield Fisher all chose to
call this place home.
Our stay during
this trip is at the Hill Farm Inn. Located just down the road
from our shop the inn offers the perfect location to fully explore
and discover this wonderful valley. The classic farmhouse has wide
board floors, antique furnishings and true country charm.
Innkeepers Al and Lisa Gray will be on hand to welcome us and make
us feel immediately at home. We'll soon sense the warm feeling of
timeless relaxation. We settle into Hill Farm Inn for our entire
trip allowing us the opportunity to fully explore this valley by
foot and canoe.
The Batten Kill
is the focal point of our paddling. With over 40 miles of
sparkling water and gentle rapids we will have plenty to choose
from. The Batten Kill rises in the Green Mountains, flows through
beautiful countryside and passes under four covered bridges on its
way to the Hudson. Your guides will be happy to share their
favorite sections of river along with sunny lunch spots and
refreshing swimming holes.
The Taconic and
Green Mountains offer an abundance of hiking and walking choices
for us. We will explore backroads and pathways that lead us to
hidden lakes and quiet overlooks. We will hike sections of
America's most famous trail - the Appalachian Trail, and sections
of our state's on wilderness footpath - the Long Trail.
After our four days of
adventure our journey comes to a close. As we conclude our trip in
the Valley of Vermont we look back on our time of stretched out
space, of peace and quiet beauty, and begin to plan our next trip
to this magical area. |
