Gold Brook Covered Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

So my thumb is in the picture. Don’t let that distract you from the quaint covered bridge just outside of Stowe VT that offers you a picture of the Full Vermonty. Also, it’s namesake road has some of the prettiest houses in the area. But be sure to switch to your knobby tires - this, and other dirt roads nearby - are not for the faint of heart with super-thin road tires.

Lintilhac Park (Stowe Recreation Path Access)

Highlight • Rest Area

Lintilhac Park is a lovely little park behind the Stowe Community Church and is a common access point for the southern end of the Stowe Recreation Path. The Stowe Recreation Path is a popular, scenic, 5.3-mile paved trail that is open for bikers and walkers, and is groomed in the winter for cross-country skiiers. This fantastic trail crosses Little River several times via wooden bridges, has multiple spots for swimming, and offers direct access to many restaurants and shops in Stowe. There is a bike repair station at Lintilhac Park for those who might need it, in addition to parking for the Recreation Path.

Idletyme Brewing & PK Coffee

Highlight • Cafe

A coffee shop and a brewery right across the street from each other! What more can you ask for on a relaxing ride around Stowe? Idletyme Brewing and PK Coffee are two great spots to grab a burger and beer or coffee and pastry depending on your mood (and time of day). Both of these local-favorite spots are right off of the Stowe Recreational Path, making them convenient to stop at and refuel as you explore the area.
