Vermont’s Green Mountain Range provides an outstanding assortment of great mountain hikes.  They vary from challenging 4,000 foot alpine summits to easy, below-tree line peaks with spectacular views of this mountainous region.  Mount Mansfield, the state high point, and Camel’s Hump, are two 4,000 footers just a short distance from the beautiful college town of Burlington on Lake Champlain.  The 272 mile Long Trail traverses both and their summit areas are arctic alpine zones.  Located in the west central part of the state, Equinox Mountain, is an easy to moderate hike that begins in quaint Manchester Village, a shopping destination.  Jay Peak, near the Canadian border, is an easy trek to the northern terminus of the Long Trail.   Obtain directions to trailheads, detailed trail descriptions, maps and photos of these New England 100 Highest Peaks in our book, Mountains for Mortals - New England.  Additional information is available on our website, www.ronchaseoutdoors.com.
