looking for a 3 hour loop Grand Isle Vt region

[Bob R]

Going camping this Weekend at Grand Isle state park on Lake Champlain. Looking for a medium to moderate hike to do with my wife and dog. 3 hour range aprox. Loop would be great.

thanks in advance

Did you check to see if they are open?

[Bob R]

Yes this section is not effected by the floods.

Are you talking about driving off-island to hike? The islands are darn flat so you'd be doing more "nature walk" type stuff there.

FYI the recent flooding around Lake champlain.

I am willing to drive 20 miles or so. I am in burlington during the am tomorrow for a kids sports event.

Niquette bay state park looked like the closest option. One 1 hour hike and a few other shorter ones. not really what I wanted, but I think its a good fall back plan if I can't come up with anything else.

May be a bit further, but would definitely check out Mt. Mansfield area. If you don't want to tough a hike, drive up the toll road and hike around the top. Real nice up there. The car ride up 108 between Smuggs and Stowe is a nice trip in itself.
