Vermont's Northeast Kingdom is home to an abundance of wildlife such as loons, bald eagles, moose, deer, osprey, hawks, cedar waxwings, and others. It's easy to get close to nature here - simply take a walk on one of our many well-blazed trail networks, meander through one of our state parks, forests, or wildlife managment areas, or paddle on one of the many rivers, lakes and ponds.
