Today our hiking group walked 4 miles at the Stowe Mountain Cross Country Center which is a popular place in the winter for cross country skiers. In the spring, summer and fall it is a great place to hike in the woods.
The weather was perfect today for hiking. Finally a day with no rain, although the woods had quite a bit of mud from the previous days when it had poured. Temperatures barely reached 60 today, so a good day to do a brisk moderate climb.
In the winter Stowe Mountain Resort’s Cross Country Ski Center offers 25 miles of groomed trails and 20 miles of backcountry terrain.
In the summer there are numerous trails used for hiking and mountain biking at the popular Touring Center.
Stowe also has many other hiking trails and weather permitting our group will be trying different scenic hikes weekly.
