If possible, I
recommend driving the slower 80 mile route between Quechee and Huntington,
Vermont, on secondary roads and over mountains. The additional 45
minutes of winding roads and elevated terrain always makes the journey as
memorable as the destinations. Comfortable boots are a must. Covid
masks are mandatory. Binoculars may be helpful. Entry fees are
reasonable. Check for hours. Some paths/trails are closed/not plowed in winter.
Plan on at least: 2 to 3 hours in Quechee at VINS
(Vermont Institute of Natural Science) to see all the different raptors, travel the sky-walk and attend a presentation [add hours if you plan on visiting the Gorge and/or the Antique Mall(s)]; 2 hours to hike some of the Audubon
trails in Huntington and about an hour to explore the Birds of Vermont Museum, also in Huntington.
