Fun Family Vacation Ideas In Vermont
Take a moment to explore what the Upper Valley can offer your family this winter or holiday season. There is a nice variety of fun, and we know you will not be disappointed. Check out some of the popular activities during winter and the holiday season in the Upper Valley.
Billings Farm & Museum
The Billings Farm & Museum in Woodstock is always a hit with children. That’s because this farm has around 70 Jersey cows, calves, draft horses, steers, pigs, goats, Southdown sheep, and chickens. In winter, the farm offers horse-drawn sleigh rides. The museum is also very interesting, with plenty of facts about the area and farm life.
Killington Ski Area
If you have a thrill-seeking family, they will love the Killington Ski Area. Even if you are new to the Killington Ski Area, there are ski and snowboarding lessons as well as rental gear to get you up to speed. This place has everything to keep you entertained all day. There are 17 dining options, a tubing park, the largest vertical drop in New England at 3,050 feet, 155 ski trails, and 21 lifts. After an afternoon of skiing thrills you can relax at the Killington Grand Spa.
