Green Mountain National Forest, Vermont
Why It’s Cool: Vermont's Long Trail is one of the Green Mountain National Forest's biggest draws, so try finding a camping spot close by to hike a portion of it during your stay. Aside from being stunning, the 270-plus miler is the oldest long-distance trail in the U.S.! It follows the ridge of the Green Mountains through Vermont from the Massachusetts border to Canada.
Where to Camp: The forest offers five developed campgrounds. There are no electrical hookups or dump stations, so arrive prepared. Campground accessibility varies by season, and some require a reservation. Dispersed or backcountry camping is allowed anywhere in the park unless specifically posted.
When It’s Open: Year-round. Visitor center and campground accessibility vary by season, but at least one campground is always open.
Cost: This is the best part. There are no entrance fees, and most campsites are free too. The Green Mountain Club maintains about 70 campsites along the Long Trail, all with a water source and privy (which require a small fee in summer and fall). For more information, visit the park's website.
