You'll find Vermont's Northeast Kingdom in Patricia Schultz's New York Times best-selling book "1,000 Places To See Before You Die." In 2006, the National Geographic Society listed The Northeast Kingdom as THE MOST DESIRABLE PLACE to visit in the country and the ninth most desirable place to visit in the WORLD.

It is, without a doubt, Vermont's most beautiful and undisturbed region. It was given its name in 1949 by former Vermont Governor, then U.S. Senator, George Aiken, who was moved by the natural ruggedness and beauty of the area. Maple lined roads; traditional Vermont villages and country stores immediately help you leave the frenetic life behind, while the vibrant culture, wide variety of outdoor recreational activities and prolific arts environment stimulate the mind and body and keep you very much in touch.

Whatever your passion, you can fulfill it here.
