Hunger Mountain, Waterbury Trail

This was a great hike. One of my favorite parts of visiting VT! Lots of cool streams to fill water up but definitely tiring on the legs as the ascent is quick and steep but the view at top is totally worth it. A fun small rock scramble to the top.

Steep climb at the start makes hike feel longer than it actually is. After initial climb flattens out into typical Vermont woodlands along the hilltop. The Forrest Service clears the overlook of Bennington via controlled burn. View of Bennington decent but view is better from the white rocks accessible by two nearby trails. Ultimately a worthwhile hike and good work out for a short hike.

This was a great hike and an incredible view. We got there right before sunset and it was a clear day you could see forever. The directions to Ridge Rd. are incorrect, and if they are right we could not find it-luckily I was with someone that had been before and we were able to still go it just took us longer than expected. The trail is also open prior to June.

Started from Jamaica State Park in Jamaica, VT. The park is technically closed in winter but the trail is accessible for XC and 'shoeing. There is a small plowed parking lot. It's a total of 6 miles, the first 2 miles on an old dismissed railroad are flat and along the river, you come upon a marker for the 1 mile hike up to the falls, this part is a moderate ascent. The falls under snow are beautiful.
