"Last but not least is another easy trail for hiking in Stowe: Wiessner Woods!. As the name suggests, this hike is mainly a forest trail that will bring you through beautiful trees and nature. You might even pass by some great wildflowers or even wildlife."

"Almost entirely forested, Wiessner Woods is a public access park that has several trails running through it for hiking, nature viewing, bird watching, and wildlife viewing. Black bears do live in the area though so the public is advised to use caution."

"Edson Hill Road (3.5 miles off Rte. 108)Stowe, VT 05672802-253-7221. Encompassing 79 acres, this forested area is a prime spot for outdoor recreation in Stowe."

"The first solar-powered brewery in Vermont is Rock Art, an environmentally-conscious micro-brewery and tasting room that highlights original flavors on eight rotating taps. Find your seat in the viewing room to watch the brewing process, or take home a few of the signature 22-ounce bottles with the Kokopelli logo. Some local favorites include the Vermonster barleywine, the Ridge Runner double IPA, and the Sun Rocked IPA – a citrus-packed beer with hints of pine and grapefruit that is the brewery’s first to be made entirely with solar power."

"Rock Art Brewery is one of the Stowe area’s oldest breweries, having opened in 1997. Their most well-known beers are the Ridge Runner Double IPA and Vermonster, both of which are categorized as English Barleywines. This indicates that they have a strong malt flavor and are rich in alcohol."

"Signposted 2 miles east of St Johnsbury, this captivating spot celebrates the legacy of Vermont artist Stephen Huneck. There's an entire gallery devoted to Huneck's whimsical dog-themed artwork, but the real showstopper is the adjacent chapel, designed by Huneck to celebrate the enduring bond between humans and animals. Huneck's own contributions (a doggie weathervane, canine-themed doorknobs and stained-glass windows) are complemented by scores of photos and heartfelt notes plastered on the chapel's walls by visitors commemorating their own lost pets."

"This short (1/2 mile) and easy hike follows a trail alongside the Sterling Falls Gorge in the Sterling Falls Gorge Natural Area. The falls themselves consist of three falls, six cascade sets and eight pools. In summer, a few of the cascades and pools may be hidden by the leafy green foliage of the forest."

"One of the most fascinating parts about visiting Stowe is learning about its rich history and tales from the 1800s. The Gold Brook Covered Bridge is an old bridge on the outskirts of the city that I highly recommend visiting. The urban legend claims that this bridge is haunted by a ghost named Emily who took her life at the bridge after her lover deserted her on their wedding day."

"No Vermont trip is complete without visiting at least one covered bridge. Did you know Vermont has more covered bridges (107!) than any other state?. Golden Brook Covered Bridge, also known as Emily’s Bridge, is a 50-foot-long wooden bridge over Gold Brook."

"The story is that Emily committed suicide here a long time ago and that her spirit still haunts the bridge."
