Come and Meet Vermont's <br>Covered Bridges Come and Meet Vermont's
Covered Bridges

Few structures in America combine architectural ingenuity, economic necessity, and romantic idealism better than the covered bridge. Covered bridges flourished in the United States in the 19th century. Pennsylvania has the greatest number of covered bridges, and Vermont, with about 104 covered bridges, has the highest number relative to the state’s size. In Southern Vermont, some highlights of the many covered bridges include the Bridge at the Green (Arlington Bridge) in Arlington and the Henry / Burt Bridge in Bennington, which is a short distance from the rebuilt Paper Mill Bridge and the Silk Bridge. Covered bridges offer a wonderful opportunity to stop, take pictures, dip your feet in the river, and even to picnic.

Foliage Drives in Vermont

The spectacular colors of Vermont’s hillsides in the fall are famous the world over. Peak viewing time is mid-September in the northern areas to late October in the south. Below are some driving loops where visitors can see spectacular foliage. Keep these points in mind:

♦ Different varieties of trees change at different times. Red maples are among the first to change, especially those along roadsides and in wet areas.
♦ The earliest foliage change generally occurs in the northern part of the state near the Canadian border and at higher elevations.
♦ By mid-September full color begins to appear across the north, moving progressively south during October. Typically, groups of trees with brilliant color can be found throughout September.
♦ "Peak color” is a bit of a myth, since every person has their own ideas of what peak looks like. Typically, the fullest color can be found from late-September in the north through mid-October in the south.
♦ Many experienced foliage viewers actually consider late October the most beautiful time in Vermont. Once the most brilliant colors have passed, the hills take on a subtler and richer range of hues that are just as beautiful, if not as spectacular.
