Neither cross-country skiers nor downhill enthusiasts will leave the northeastern town of Stowe disappointed when snow falls, though this region is equally popular come summer with hikers and paddlers.
At the upper end of the reservoir, the Ottauquechee River flows through the sheer-faced 165-ft deep Quechee Gorge, one of the outstanding natural spectacles in the state. An overlook area and a state-managed campground as well as a new Visitor Center being built in the summer of 2004 are nearby. At North Hartland Lake, there is boating on the 215-acre lake, picnicking in a wooded picnic area, and a small beach offering swimming. There are three picnic shelters at North Hartland Lake that can be reserved for a group event for a nominal fee. The trash policy for the park is carry in/carry out.
