MA – December 2015 / Newsmaker Alert / Great
Freedom Adventures, an expert provider of bike tours and active vacations,
announces two new four-day bicycling itineraries for 2016 that feature
panoramic landscapes in Vermont and in a bit of New Hampshire too. Drawing
from expertise gained during 35 years of biking Vermont’s back roads, itineraries
were crafted that quickly get travelers right into some of the most scenic
landscapes in the state. Participants can choose from six 2016 departure
dates during the spring, summer and fall: June 6, July 11, August 15, October
3, October 7 and October 11.
Guests
on the Beguiling
Woodstock VT and Beyond Bike Tour discover the renowned beauty of the
town of Woodstock and the verdant hills and valleys surrounding the town.
Stops are made at the Quechee Gorge, Simon Pearce Glassblowing, the Calvin
Coolidge State Park, Coolidge Homestead, Plymouth Cheese Factory and Long
Trail Brewery. The last day of the tour includes a short hike to a hilltop
offering panoramic views of farmland and distant mountain ridges.
The
Rivers
and Ridgelines Cycling Tour in Vermont and New Hampshire highlights
the natural beauty of the sparkling rivers and radiant ridgelines surrounding
the towns of Randolph and Norwich, VT. On the last day of the tour, guests
will cross the Connecticut River to discover the lovely town of Hanover,
NH, home to Dartmouth College. Additional tour highlights include a private
beer tasting of Vermont craft beers, stops at country stores in small hamlets,
the opportunity to shop in upscale boutiques and fine art galleries and
a stop at the award-winning King Arthur Baking School and Store.
“What’s
remarkable about these Vermont bike tours is that in the space of just
four days, guests will encounter surprisingly diverse scenes, from ridgelines
with long-distance views to serene bog lands popular with moose, to charming
Vermont villages,” says Jeanne Rummel, Great Freedom Adventures founder
and tour designer.
Both
tours feature lodging in fine inns that provide a quintessential Vermont
experience. The inns offer numerous amenities such as indoor or outdoor
pools, hot tubs, taverns, restaurants, exercise rooms, in-room fireplaces,
marble baths and fine linens.
Tours
include dinners at the region’s best restaurants and offer locally sourced
foods. Guests will further savor the tastes of Vermont while sampling treats
such as maple syrup, maple butter, freshly pressed cider, cheddar cheese
and craft beer. Many of these foods are produced in or near the very areas
that cyclists will pedal through.
Tour
packages include lodging, most meals, bike rental, admissions, guides,
van support, daily snacks and drinks, maps and more. Prices start at $1,395
per person based on double occupancy. For more information, including the
full itineraries, please visit the website at: Great
