There’s no time like the present to have an adventure right here in the Green Mountain State. We have some of the prettiest forested state parks in the entire U.S., and we’re here today to talk about one trek that folks can’t get enough of. If hiking through a wonderful forest all the way to an incredible scenic overlook sounds like your idea of a lovely afternoon, come along with us today as we explore Deer Leap Trail. Let’s start with those incredible forest views, shall we?
This 4.6-mile loop trail is rated as moderately difficult by the users over at AllTrails.
