There’s far from a shortage of small towns worth exploring in Vermont. While each place has its own distinct charm, I’d like to shine the spotlight on Lincoln, Vermont. With a population of under 2,000 residents, Lincoln was originally settled by the Quakers in the 1800s. Nowadays, this town of under 50 square miles is known for its stunning landscapes, proximity to well-known ski areas, and small-town charm. Read on to learn more about what there’s to explore in this Vermont small town over a weekend stay.
Lincoln, Vermont is surrounded by the Green Mountains and is the ideal destination for spending time in nature and enjoying small-town life.
Part of this small town's charm is The Lincoln General Store. This community fixture has been around since 1843 and is to place to go to stock up on everything and anything.
If you're a fan of architecture, take time to check out Burnham Hall during your visit to Lincoln. Along with being the place to gather in town, this was once the site of Lincoln's library.
... or go on an adventure off of this scenic road. There are numerous hikes, such as a trail up Mt. Abraham that'll take you by the wreckage of a plane!
