When is peak fall foliage?
While every year is different, in Burlington you'll generally
begin to see fall foliage around mid-September, with colors at
their peak mid-October. Our climate is tempered by the Lake, so
for other Vermont locations, particularly in the Mountains, you
can count on foliage arriving, and peaking, a bit earlier.
How close are you to the major ski resorts?
Burlington is located in the midst of many quality resorts. The
closest are about 40 minutes away by car.
What papers do I need to get across the border?
Visitors from other countries must bring current passports, and
possibly a visa. Check with the
