Green Chair Overlook #2

Highlight • Viewpoint

This second overlook with a green chair is just as pretty as the first and an equally good photo opportunity. In the fall you can take in the colors from here since it is a little more heavily wooded.

Green Chair Overlook #1

Highlight • Viewpoint

Named for the faded dark green chairlift chair that is mounted on a tree, the Green Chair overlook faces Mount Mansfield and offers stunning views through the trees at the peak, and is a great place to rest after a steep little climb. This popular vista is a great place to sip some water either on the chair or at the picnic table behind it, and snap a few photos before continuing onward in Cady Hill Forest.

Cady Hill Forest Trailhead (Mountain Road Entrance to Trail System)

Highlight • Trail

Cady Hill Forest has one of Stowe’s most popular multi-use trail networks for mountain biking, trail running, and hiking. This extensive trail system is well-maintained, well-marked, and a pleasant place to explore if you need a break from some of the high-elevation hikes that Stowe has to offer. Although the views are not as dramatic as other hikes in the area, Cady Hill Forest is well known for its verdant green forests - which some locals call the “maple jungle" - making an excellent area for leaf-peeping in the fall. Be aware as you hike these trails, however, as they are extremely popular with mountain bikers. Always keep an ear out for them and be prepared to step off the trail to let them pass. Please also be aware of signage indicating whether or not hikers are allowed; some trails in Cady Hill Forest are exclusively reserved for mountain biking.

Lintilhac Park (Stowe Recreation Path Access)

Highlight • Rest Area

Lintilhac Park is a lovely little park behind the Stowe Community Church and is a common access point for the southern end of the Stowe Recreation Path. The Stowe Recreation Path is a popular, scenic, 5.3-mile paved trail that is open for bikers and walkers, and is groomed in the winter for cross-country skiiers. This fantastic trail crosses Little River several times via wooden bridges, has multiple spots for swimming, and offers direct access to many restaurants and shops in Stowe. There is a bike repair station at Lintilhac Park for those who might need it, in addition to parking for the Recreation Path.
