Jeffersonville, Vermont
Spend a day in Jeffersonville: ski or hike at Smuggler's Notch, then grab a bite in town; stay at the Inn if you need a night.
Jeffersonville is a tiny village centred on Smuggler's Notch Resort. Most attractions are outdoor (ski, zipline, mountain biking) and the village’s eateries serve visitors. One full day covers the resort activities and a quick stroll through the historic district; an overnight is only needed for ski season or if you prefer a relaxed pace.
