The Crossroads Region
is steeped in history. In Hubbardton, located west of
Rutland in the Lakes Region you will find the only battle of
the American Revolution which took place entirely on Vermont
soil - fought in July of 1777. Nearby in Orwell is the Mount
Independence Historic Site, which includes several trails
that connect well-preserved remains of the Revolutionary War
that was fought in the area. A bustling municipal center,
transportation hub and important city for commerce, Rutland
has, in many respects, remained much the same since its
early 1900's heyday. In the middle of ski paradise, this
small town offers fine lodging, dining and shopping.
Destined to become one of Vermont's premier attractions, the
Vermont Marble Exhibit in Proctor is part art gallery, part
natural history museum. And while you are marveling at
Vermont's natural charms, a visit to the New England Maple
Museum is a must. The part of Vermont is also rich in
country
inns, ski
lodges and welcoming
bed
and breakfasts. |
