Mount Snow is a fantastic mountain just 20 minutes away.

We highly recommend the Harriman Reservoir (photo below), which is 7 minutes away and absolutely gorgeous. Lake Raponda is also beautiful with a beach for easy entry and a floating doc that's fun for jumping in.

We have a bunch of rustic trails on our property (probably ~2.5 miles of trails), including the photo below. Directly across the street from our driveway is the Shearer Hill Trailhead, a county trail that takes you to Mt. Olga and connects to the trails in Molly Stark State Park. Molly Stark State Park is a 6 minute drive with very pretty hikes that are fun for both adults and children. There's also a very mellow hike right in Wilmington called the Hoot Toot and Whistle Trail that meanders along a river. Jamaica State Park is about 45 minutes away with a beautiful river and great hiking. Here's a local map: https://wilmingtonvermont.us/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/Wilmington-Trail-Map.pdf
