The Vermont Beach That’s Unlike Any Other In The World
One of the most iconic scenes in Vermont is that of Lake Willoughby. With mountains flanking either side of a deep blue lake, it’s certainly a magnificent scene. Not to mention the views from one of the many hiking trails above! It simply has that “wow” factor. Did you know that there is also a beach at Lake Willoughby for us all to enjoy? Actually, there are two beaches… But we’ll get into that later!
During these uncertain times, please keep safety in mind and consider adding destinations to your bucket list to visit at a later date.
But the scenery makes it totally worth the chill!
This beach on the South Bay is clothing optional. So if you're taking the little ones or if it's simply not your cup of tea, we recommend staying at the larger beach to the north.
Just look at this panoramic view of Mt. Hor and the south end of Lake Willoughby from Pulpit Rock! This photo was taken about halfway down the mountain.
One story goes that Lake Willoughby and Crystal Lake are linked by an underground river. It's said that many years ago a group of horses that fell through the ice on Lake Willoughby, but later their harnesses were found in Crystal Lake.
