Stowe's bike path is as an all year round recreational trail. You can bike, hike, stroll, and ski on it, 365 days a year. The 5.3-mile paved trail starts in Stowe Village, next to the Stowe Congregational church, winds its way through the woods and meadows, and crosses the West Branch River 11 times on arched wooden bridges. Numerous shops, lodges, and restaurants are accessible from the path. Biking around Stowe is one of the more overlooked activities on a summer vacation. But with several places that do bike rentals and bike path it is a great way for some exercise and to see the town.
Taste of Stowe Arts Festival:
The Taste of Stowe Arts Festival is an unusual event combining a market for handmade crafts, original art, music, and an array of gourmet edible treats
The Art and Craft Tent is full of creativity. Come on out and see the extraordinary items artists have made just for you: birdbaths and marble patio tables, end tables, pitchers, mugs, plates galore, hand painted clothing, furniture, sparkling jewelry, leather purses and bags, photography, original paintings, leather work, wall sculptures, exotic dark chocolates, handmade dog treats, and more.
With 150 boutiques you will get to meet the actual artists who are selling their work. Come to listen to their stories and learn more about them while making over your home, office, garden, or patio, all while supporting local handcrafted products!
