SELF-GUIDED INN-TO-INN WALKING TOUR
From $225 per person double occupancy per night
Our self-guided inn-to-inn walking tours include lodging, meals, luggage transport, and detailed maps and route descriptions. In most cases you will head out the front door of your inn in the morning, and then walk at your own pace until you meet your welcoming hosts at the next inn for dinner. Basic navigational skills (i.e., ability to read a paper map) are required. Available as two- to five-night tours, between Sunday and Thursday.
GUIDED INN-TO-INN WALKING TOUR
From $425 per person double occupancy per night
A guided inn-to-inn walking tour with Country Mile Vermont includes personalized local guide services, lodging, meals, and luggage transport. Unlike larger tour companies, our group sizes never exceed six guests. This facilitates quality service and attention to detail, allows for more nimble planning, and ensures that each day's trek suits your goals and abilities. Benefit from our guides' regional knowledge and backcountry travel tips, and never worry that you've made a wrong turn. Available as two- to five-night tours, between Sunday and Thursday.
