Middlebury
Robert Frost Interpretive Trail
The Robert Frost Interpretive Trail in western Vermont commemorates the 22 years the poet lived there with a 1.2-mile trail through the woods and fields of Ripton. Throughout the meticulously maintained grounds, mounted plaques of poems like “The Last Mowing” and “Stopping by the Woods on a Snowy Evening” can be read among the tall pine trees, wild flowers, berry bushes, and wetlands. The hiking level is generally easy and a wooden boardwalk makes the first portion handicap accessible.
