Wilmington is a charming small town in Southern Vermont with a population of 475 people, beautiful mountains, delicious restaurants, and thriving small businesses. Wilmington borders Dover and Stratton to the north, the Massachusetts border just 10 miles South, and Brattleboro 20 miles to the east.
Nestled in the beautiful Green Mountains, Wilmington boasts a unique variety of activities for every season. During the winter, head just 15 minutes north up VT Route 100 to Mount Snow, and another 25 minutes further to Stratton Mountain. Both of these resorts offer some of the best skiing in Southern Vermont, along with spas, restaurants and cross-country skiing. Come summertime, Mount Snow is one of the oldest running lift-access downhill bike parks in the country, with trails for all levels.
