Whether you’re a seasoned rider or just getting started, the Northeast Kingdom offers an experience like no other.

An Extensive Trail Network

The Northeast Kingdom is home to one of the most extensive snowmobiling trail networks in the country. Thanks to the Vermont Association of Snow Travelers (VAST), riders can explore over 5,000 miles of interconnected trails that wind through picturesque small towns, rolling farmland, and serene woodlands. The trails are meticulously maintained, ensuring a safe and enjoyable ride no matter your skill level.

Popular routes in the area include trails through Willoughby State Forest, with stunning views of Lake Willoughby, and paths that meander through the iconic Burke Mountain area. These trails offer not only thrilling rides but also opportunities to stop and take in Vermont’s natural beauty.

Island Pond, often called the "Snowmobiling Capital of Vermont," is another must-visit destination. With its charming town atmosphere and direct access to VAST trails, it serves as a hub for snowmobilers looking to explore the region’s best routes.
