Hiking Around…

When we planned this trip we literally had no idea what was around the area or any other places to go besides the hotel that we were staying in.  The hotel looked really beautiful and they said that there were tons of things to do in the town so we figured why not just go with the flow!

When we made it to the town in Vermont we were staying in we were shocked at how there was literally nothing really around and how small the town was!  At first I thought well this should be an interesting couple of days, but we found a touristy map and just drove around and stumbled upon some really beautiful hidden gems. IMG_2781IMG_2782The very first place we landed on was Buttermilk Falls at Okemo Mountain, the town itself is mainly known for Okemo Mountain and is a ski town and I am sure it gets pretty crowded in the winter months.  There really weren’t too many people so it was really nice and relaxing which was exactly what we were looking for!  Okemo Falls was hidden off a side road and had some really beautiful falls and huge rocks.  We got some really great pictures and hung out for a little before we were able to check into the hotel.

The river was really beautiful and full of people literally digging for gold haha but we ended up going about 4 miles and then kayaked around the lake for a little.
