Walk to a historic cabin in the woods beside a river.


Mill Trail gives a nice mix of nature and history in a very short and easy hike, and there are even swimming holes to enjoy on a hot day. You’ll pass through a peaceful creekside hemlock forest and get a glimpse of what life in Vermont’s mountains was like 100 years ago.

A wide and mostly flat path through the woods leads to an old wooden cabin and a cluster of other structures. You can find pits that were once cellars for storage and the site of a water mill by the creek. The cabin was built as accommodations for Stowe’s early ski tourists in the 1930s, but the cellars and the mill are even older relics, dating from the 1800s.

Parking is limited at the trailhead on Notchbrook Road. If it’s full, you can get to Mill Trail from [Bingham Falls]( instead, but the hike is farther and you’ll have to rock-hop or wade across the creek.
