The VIC is a great place to get yourself and/or your kids into the woods without getting lost. Well, not too lost anyway. The trails are well maintained, varied and numerous, You can walk from Barnum Pond to Black pond, up Jenkins mountain, down to the St Regis mountain trail head and back again. All starting from a beautiful interpretive center building (and as my wife is quick to point out with real bathrooms!). Yes and a playground. and an active butterfly house.
You usually run into an interesting event as well or the farmers market during the summer.
A scratch-off game card is waiting for the first to find.
