The put-in is not too far from Burlington-South Burlington, if you're not familiar with the area there's a road map further down the page.

    for that around here. The river winds through the Green Mountains and you get great scenery. This is a pretty decent length section, it's good length for a morning trip. Not too many hotels nearby, you'll have to drive a bit to get to one, but you'd better reserve in advance because
these hotels fill up quick. The scenic beauty of Vermont and the beautiful way the water current moves down the stream make the trip here worthwhile.
