We provide guided hiking, bicycling, cross
country skiing and snowshoeing adventures in Vermont. We
share our passion for the Green Mountain State during multi-day, guided
inn-based hiking, bicycyling, snowshoeing and cross country trips. Some of our
trips are van supported, providing you with the opportunity to get to the next
inn under your own steam, knowing that your suitcase will be waiting for you in
your room at the end of the day. On other trips we use vans to transport guests
from point to point, followed by day hikes while based in one or more of
Vermont's many charming inns. Either way, you'll have great great food, awesome
scenery and exercise, and you will be able to experience the beauty of Vermont
at a pace that enables you to savor it. Each step of the way is filled with
history, which we’ll share with you, along with verses from our dog-eared copy
of Robert Frost’s poetry. We also provide guided day trips,
and cross country skiing lessons. In her spare time, Deborah Lewis also teaches
cross country skiing to school kids at Rikert Ski Touring Center.
