Stowe Vermont Vacations: Trapp Family Lodge
The hills truly did come alive with the sound of music after 1939 when Maria von Trapp bought an old 600-acre farm in Stowe because the panoramic mountain views reminded her of her native Austria. Her book, “The Trapp Family Singers,” later inspired the Broadway musical and movie, and the family farm grew into one of Stowe’s premier four-season resorts.
Stowe now has 65 lodges and inns offering elegant accommodations and dining, but the village has never lost its historic New England charm. Stowe’s magic takes many forms throughout the year.
In autumn the romantic majesty of its changing foliage is unsurpassed. But Stowe is most famous for its winter sports, highlighted annually at a week-long winter carnival.
Stowe Mountain Resort is called the Ski Capital of the East with a vertical drop of 2,360 feet and 39 miles of skiing on 47 trails.
Cross-country skiers have a variety of terrain available in the area, including the 5.5-mile Stowe Recreation Path.
For anyone seeking more extreme challenges, opportunities abound.
Smugglers’ Notch, a narrow pass just northeast of Mount Mansfield, is well known to snowshoeing enthusiasts and ice climbers. A steep, winding road that cuts through the notch between boulders and cliffs is closed in the winter but provides a dramatic scenic drive from May through November.
On Mount Mansfield, a toll road and a high-speed gondola provide access to the summit and its spectacular views after the snow melts.
The Stowe region offers all kinds of outdoor summer pleasure, from canoeing and fishing to biking and horseback riding. Hikers enjoy a range of diverse trails, including the Long Trail which runs north and south the entire length of Vermont and crosses the summit of Mount Mansfield.
At the end of an exhilarating day or week visitors can relax to music in a picturesque meadow at the Trapp Family Lodge. During the summer the lodge features a series of Sunday evening concerts presented by Stowe Performing Arts and the Mozart Festival.
