Just a few blocks away, right on the waterfront, are the ECHO Lake
Aquarium and Science Center, the Burlington Boathouse, and several
ships that cruise the lake all summer long. Or, enjoy the Robert G.
Hull Fleming Museum on the University of Vermont campus, and on Church
Street view a bit of our regional artistry at the Firehouse Center
for Visual Arts.
A bit farther out of town lie Shelburne Museum, Shelburne
Farms, the Vermont Teddy Bear Factory, the University of Vermont Morgan
Horse Farm, and—sweets for the sweet! Ben & Jerry’s
Ice Cream Factory Tours.
Within an hour’s drive are five world-class mountain
resorts that offer skiing and riding all winter, and a full assortment
of summer activities as well, including hiking, biking, angling, soaring,
and more. There is always something to see or do while on a Burlington
Vermont vacation! |
