THE COMMUNITIES OF THE SHIRES
WOODFORD
Much of the town lies in the Green Mountain National Forest. Idyllic Woodford State Park, at 2400 ft., is the highest state park in Vermont, with camping, cabins, canoe rentals – and quiet.
The Long Trail and the Appalachian Trail( one and the same in this part of Vermont) pass through town, and in winter Woodford is a major access point for VAST( the Vermont Association of Snow Travelers, i. e. snowmobilers).
Woodford’ s Prospect Mountain is an outstanding cross-country skiing destination, with more than 30 km of well-maintained trails. There are tracks for snowshoers, too, and in 2018 Prospect hosted the US National Snowshoe Championships.
