Itinerary
Welcome to Vermont's Scenic Route 100 Byway! We'll explore the charming landscapes of Vermont, passing through picturesque towns, lush forests, and stunning mountain views. So let’s get started! Note: The tour is over 160 miles long, with more than 140+ audio stories, and takes about 2-3 hours to complete. New, Lifetime access, no expiry. Use it anytime, on any trip, as many times as you want.
There's another great attraction here that I know will enjoy. No trip to Stowe is complete without a visit to the Von Trapp family Lodge. It's the second biggest reason after skiing that visitors come to the area. Situated on 2500 acres this Austrian mountain beauty is run by members of the original Von Trapp family that inspired the movie The Sound of Music.
Stowe’s main resort area is coming up, and it is impossible to miss. It’s the location where the gondola departs, but be aware that the gondola's warm weather operation only begins in mid-September, which is, of course, when foliage season really gets going.
We'll soon arrive at the entrance for Smuggler’s Notch Resort, Vermont's third largest ski resort and also known as America's Family Resort.
The cozy village of Stowe is just ahead, where we will come to the junction of Route 100. If we decide to explore the village a bit we’ll turn left and go find parking.
Apple cider is a Vermont specialty and you definitely need to try it while you are here. And yes, I do have a place for that and it's coming up quickly.
We are right in the middle of my favorite food lover's stretch of Route 100. There are some great places to stop and sample more of Vermont's most loved food delicacies here.
We are getting close to the town of Waterbury. One of Waterbury’s more famous tourist spots involves ice cream, but there is another mega brand business based here as well that we might also enjoy visiting.
Just stay straight ahead to get to Ben and Jerry's ice cream factory. As you can imagine this is a very popular place and just about the most visited attraction in all of Vermont. Going to need you to be patient while we're here and don't be surprised if we have some short waits during the peak times of the year, where it’s summer and foliage season.
It looks to me like we've decided to drive Route 17 to Mad River Glen and maybe even a little further to the App Gap itself. Its less than 10 minute to the Gap, and we'll see the ski area before that.
One of Vermont's more famous ski resorts, but there are also lots of summer activities for kids of every age, even the really old kids like me.
It's another quirky little town and definitely worth the drive through. Driving through town will bring us back onto this road and we won't miss anything.
