The View from Vermont’s Main Street

Running along the eastern edge of the Green Mountains, the Scenic Route 100 Byway is located in south-central Vermont traversing through the towns & villages of Plymouth, Ludlow, Andover, Weston & Londonderry. The route is recognized by Yankee Magazine as one of “the most scenic drives in New England.” Also known as “Vermont’s Main Street” and “The Skier’s Highway” it connects some of the best Northeastern winter skiing & riding from Magic Mountain, Okemo to Killington Ski Resorts. Nordic Skiing & snowshoeing are also available at the Viking Nordic Center and Fox Run Nordic Center. During the rest of the year there’s great hiking, biking and golf at Fox Run Golf Club.
