In the western portion of the city, the crest of the Green Mountain range runs from north to south, offering a beautiful landscape and adventurous outdoor activities. The Winhall River also passes through Winhall at the point it cascades from the high range of the Green Mountains. All this is to say that Winhall offers the beauty and allure that you have come to expect from Vermont.
Since Winhall is situated within the Green Mountain National Forest, exploring this area is convenient and oh so worth it! With three nationally designated trails, three alpine ski areas, seven Nordic ski areas, and about 900 miles of multi-use trails for hiking, cross-country skiing, snowmobiling, horseback riding, and bicycling, this forest is an outdoor enthusiast's dream. For those who don't particularly like these activities, photographing the forest's waterfalls and wildlife - including black bears, coyotes, beavers, and moose - might be more appealing.
