Vermont’s a downright gorgeous state with some of the most beautiful scenery in the country. Of that, we can probably all agree. One of the best ways to admire the beauty of the landscape is to drink in a sunrise or a sunset. After all, can you think of anything more breathtaking than the lush landscape bathed in golden light? You can catch one – or both – when you climb atop the fire tower at Allis State Park in Vermont.

A popular destination for outdoor lovers, Allis State Park boasts a full menu of activities - from hiking to picnicking.

Day use hours run from 10 a.m. to sunset. That means if you want to watch the sunrise, you’ll have to pitch a tent or park your RV for a camping adventure.
