Tourist Guide - Arlington is a small town in the Valley of Vermont, where it lies between the Taconic Range to the west and the Green Mountains to the east. It is a popular place to stay during the winter holidays, as Arlington inns and bed and breakfasts are located in close proximity to skiing and snowmobiling ranges including
Bromley Mountain Ski Area and
Stratton Mountain Ski. Arlington lodging properties often offer vacation packages that include ski passes or sleigh rides, so be sure to ask! Arlington is an attractive place to visit year-round. In the springtime you can go fly fishing on the
Battenkill River, famous for its trout, or set out on a bird watching excursion. Summer is the season for hiking on mountain and forest trails, going for a bike ride on the Arlington country roads, swimming in the lakes or streams, canoeing on the Battenkill, horseback riding, and golf. If you like, you can even enter the famous Appalachian Trail from the access point in the
Green Mountain National Forest. Fall is a great time to enjoy the amazing sights and colors of Vermont foliage. You can get a spectacular view of the fall colors by traversing
Mt. Equinox Skyline Drive. From the mountain summit you can enjoy a picnic or stay to watch the beautiful sunset.
