NEW ENGLAND TRAVEL ADVENTURES...
Travel to New England to find the historic heart of modern America and explore the six states of Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island and Vermont.
New England travel offers immense diversity, and is
perfect for a family holiday, a romantic
getaway, or a vacation with friends..
There are rivers and lakes, towering
forests, miles of white sand beaches,
mountain ranges with hiking and
skiing trails, quaint fishing villages,
and coastal resorts with elegant
yachts bobbing in the harbour.
Holidays in New England are
richly rewarding... white-steepled
churches on emerald greens...
sophisticated Boston... and, in the
autumn, forests aflame with reds
and golds. Discover New England,
and discover your next vacation
destination!
...WHATEVER THE SEASON
Maple sugaring cues the advent of spring, a showcase for New England's love of gardening. Festivals celebrate daffodils, tulips and lupins, lilac, roses and dogwood.
Since New England is on the same
latitude as Rome, summers are hot. Hit the
beaches from Connecticut to Maine; cool off
on lakes and in forests.
New England's fall foliage is legendary. In autumn,
the warm days and crisp nights help the
leaves change from green to a tapestry of
colour.
Go in winter for snow and crisp
sunny days, for skiing and snowboarding
in the mountains, city breaks with great
shopping, theatre and museums.
SPOTLIGHT NEW ENGLAND
Vermont’s Scenic Roads & Art in the Round Barn
The Mad River Byway takes you along two of Vermont’s most scenic roads – Routes 100 and 100B – and is characterized by its classic New England landscape and architecture – mountain ridgelines, a winding river, hillside farms, and steepled villages. Along the way you’ll find Middlesex Village (Route 2); Moretown (Route 100B); Waitsfield, Warren, Granville Gulf Reservation (Route 100); and Fayston, and Buels Gore to the top of the Appalachian Gap (Route 17). Sugarbush and Mad River Glen ski areas are here, and the Green Mountain National Forest. The byway also intersects the Long Trail – the oldest long distance hiking trail in America. About a mile off of Route 100 and through a beautiful covered bridge, stop by the Art in the Round Barn event – a juried show displaying works of the finest artists throughout New England running from September 20-October 11.
