This guide features sixty trails across the Green Mountain State.

"It's possible to jump on a highway and zip past picturesque church steeples rising from the greenery, but 'Inns & Adventures' will make you slow down, explore, and stay the night. Adventures include such activities as white-water kayaking, hiking, fishing, mountain biking, hidden swimming spots, and the thrill of discovering lesser-known countryside. For history buffs, unusual events from favorite inns and regions are also profiled, so readers can 'meet' the innkeepers and learn why the author found these inns the perfect destination after a day outdoors."--Page 4 of cover.
