Visitors to The Shires of Vermont often comment that the region has it all when it comes to shopping and scenery. They're right! For most people, shopping is an indoor, mall experience. Not so in stunning southern Vermont where browsing, shopping and enjoying the great outdoors come together for a delightful adventure.

Here you'll find a great diversity of shopping outlets and specialty stores, antique and local artisan shops, seasonal farm stands and quality gift shops, souvenir shops filled with maple syrup and Vermont-made products - all with scenery at the doorstep of virtually every stop you make.

For the non-shoppers outdoor benches are usually available for relaxing and enjoying the scenic mountain views.
