There are some interesting parts like waterfalls, rock steps, wooden bridges and an area with some artful graffiti. I haven't walked the whole way because of too much water (wet shoes) and darkness falling. Some day this summer I will when the days are long and the trails are dry!

It's quite a sight to see - two giant whale's tails emerging from the ground next to the interstate! I didn't get a chance to stop over and explore it up close unfortunately due to time, but there's directions on the artist's website if you want to get a closer look (and it's encouraged!). A real roadside treat for any driver. Plus I find it funny that it's now the cover of the book I used in art history class... full circle, full circle.

This small and very unassuming bridge located in Stowe is actually said to be haunted !! The name…read moreof this covered bridge, the Gold Brook, is also known as Emily's Bridge. It was built in 1844, and the most famous of the (many) stories about this bridge is that back in the 1800's, a farmer's daughter, Emily, fell in love with a young man from a rich family, but his parents refused to allow their wedding to occur. The young man told Emily to wait on the bridge at midnight, but he didn't show, and she was so distraught, she is said to have taken her own life. Allegedly, her ghost appears during the nighttime around Halloween, haunting those who come to the bridge. We drove over the quiet bridge during a summer day, but we saw no sightings of Emily !!

The couches and lounge chairs make it a perfect environment to relax and stay warm/cool. The bathrooms are nice and they have gender neutral bathrooms here which are a huge plus in my books. The large windows let in so much light and the whole place is easy to get to with several accesses to stairs and elevators.

Lion and I went to check it out recently on a clear day. I am a lover of the oddball and kitschy. This meets the bill. It's made of granite, stretches down a narrow alleyway.

I found this on the map that way when passing through Barre, so we stopped to check it out. The surprise of seeing what it is when we got to it, and sharing the experience with other visitors to town was all well worth it. Plus, we parked the car and got to some local spots, and visited the very nice library. It was a good little visit to town. So, if you're in the vicinity of Barre, definitely don't miss this. I was thinking maybe not worth it to drive more than an hour out of your way... but then again, if it's worth it to you, why not?

Allegedly, a water-dinosaur with a long neck, small head, long tail and flippered feet. Yes, Champ. This stone near the lake provides an image of Champ looking rather smiley, and her official scientific name, Belua Aquatica Champlainiensis. Incidentally, Champ has been labeled as an officially protected species by the government of Vermont. I had several opportunities to spot Champ but never did. Even stopping here at night when it's allegedly the best time to spot lake monsters. Didn't see her. Maybe you'll have better luck. [Review 18516 overall - 114 in Vermont - 2038 of 2022.]
