Montpelier, Vermont in the Fall

I've done the research for you and put together my top picks on where to go and what sights not to miss during foliage season in Montpelier, VT. Montpelier, Vermont is full of amazing places that are worth stopping for when you're in the area.

My goal was not only to pick out great spots for leaf-peeping but also to make sure these were places I'd actually go back again next time I visited.

Take a walk

Wonder through town and enjoy the fall foliage. It's easy to falling love with the city when you stop by during peak foliage season. Color is bursting everywhere and that is no less true than when you take a walk down the main road through town.

Stop by the Capital City Farmer's Market

Stop by 133 State Street to visit the Capital City Farmer's Market. Popular fall produce includes things like apples, squash, pumpkins, sweet potatoes, and kale.

If you walk through the farmer's market, you will find fresh produce and plenty of handmade goods. It's definitely worth the visit.

While you're there, stop by one of the diners in Montpelier for brunch. I recommend taking the opportunity to enjoy a fresh pumpkin pancake breakfast or maybe treat yourself to a homemade apple crisp with a big scoop of vanilla ice cream at the end.
