Waterbury’s playground is the peaks, valleys, and rivers of the Green Mountains. Our culture and people are naturally active and you can join in the fun. Pack your backpack and summit some of the high peaks of Vermont or mountain bike down them. Cool off with a dip in the waters of Waterbury or try your hand at canoeing, kayaking, stand-up paddleboarding, and fishing.
Waterbury’s shops, restaurants, attractions, and cultural events offer enough variety for everyone to enjoy. Take a break to watch ice cream and cider materialize before your eyes, or sample and shop Vermont-made products. Browse boutiques or discover an eclectic weekend flea market, and end the day on the town with complimentary open-air performances. Don't forget to use Waterbury Bucks as you suppport our local businesses!
For something more low key, take a scenic driving tour on the Green Mountain Byway and admire the granite-edged mountains, valleys dappled with farms, rushing streams, covered bridges, and historic villages.
When the snow starts to fall, ski or ride hundreds of miles of powder-packed terrain at four renowned resorts, all within fifteen miles of Waterbury. Backcountry trails, Nordic skiing, snowshoeing, snowmobiling, dog sledding, ice skating and even sleigh rides round out the winter activities roster.
Whether you join us for an afternoon or for a week, you’re bound to find fun!
