The best parks & outdoor spots in St. Johnsbury

“Millstone keeps Barre moving with a well-loved network through Barre Town Forest, plus free printable and interactive maps, trail conditions and closures, and extras like a pump track, winter groomed routes, disc golf, and the Millstone Summer Trail Series if you like a little community spice.”

“Great Vermont Corn Maze turns an afternoon into a workout with a 24-acre labyrinth, 100-foot bridges, and an underground tunnel, plus a shorter Scenic Maze if you just want the views.”

“Tamarack Hollow Farm grows certified organic vegetables right over in Plainfield, and they keep it refreshingly transparent with details on how they grow and a steady Instagram photo stream, so you know exactly what went into that salad. Check their "Where to Buy" to snag what's in season close to home.”

“Matsinger Forest is the Fairbanks Museum’s 515-acre outdoor classroom in Danville, with roughly five miles of easy-to-moderate paths threading old-growth pockets and diverse natural communities. Great for quick after-work resets or unhurried rambles through forest, meadow, and pond habitats.”
