Burlington, VT
Outdoorsy city
Burlington has got it all. New gear, used gear, food, places to stay — it’s all here in this small city nestled beside Lake Champlain.
Shopping
Stroll pedestrian-only Church Street (this entry’s map location) for college-town vibes of street performers, vintage clothes, and prime people watching cafes with oversized variations on the brownie. The literary minded enjoy poking around the Crow Book Shop for new and used selections. Those seeking equipment for hiking, cycling, skiing, climbing, and camping should zip-line to Outdoor Gear Exchange, which sells outdoor gear and equipment. Deeply discounted clothes for an outdoor lifestyle (think Reebok, Columbia, North Face) can be found at nearby Sierra.
