The Stowe / Smugglers' Notch Area of Vermont has majestic mountains, eye-catching
fall foliage, and spectacular skiing. It is a four-season vacation destination
on what some locals refer to as "the quiet side of the Mountain."
Smugglers' Notch Resort
is a winding pass at the foot of Mount Mansfield, Vermont's highest peak. The
road through the Notch, Route 108, is one of two officially designated scenic
highways in the state and only opens in summer.
Nestled between the mountain peaks is the historic village of
Stowe.
With beautiful accommodations such as those at the
Stoweflake Mountain Resort & Spa,
fantastic restaurants, village shops and spas, Stowe is a town for any season.
With two major ski resorts, the Stowe-Smugglers' Notch region remains a focal
point of activity throughout the year. Many people come here to ski, snow shoe
and ice climb. With both the Brewster River and the Lamoille Rivers swiftly moving
alongside roads, the area is easily accessible and rich in places to hike, canoe,
fish, bike, and relax.
In 2010, Yankee Magazine, listed several
Vermont towns in their slideshow of "Top 25 Foliage Towns in New England," including
Stowe and
Jeffersonville.
