Tasting Trail North | Central | South
The Lake Champlain Tasting Trail is made up of restaurants, farm stands, markets, farms, breweries, wineries and other places and locations that showcase many of Vermont's finest food and farm experiences for visitors and travelers to our state.
The Vermont Agency of Agriculture, Vermont Fresh Network, Vermont Department of Tourism and the University of Vermont have developed this food and farm trail to connect Vermont with the Adirondack culinary trails in NY and the food and farm trails in Quebec. You can start wherever you like. Review the Lake Champlain Tasting Trail list below and build a custom itinerary for your visit.
