The first annual Vermont Festival of the Great Outdoors will be held July 9-18, 2010, in the towns of Fayston, Waitsfield, Warren and Moretown, or as they are more known, The Mad River Valley.

Step outside! The vast beauty of the Mad River Valley surrounded by the Green Mountains is the perfect setting for river exploration, bird watching opportunities, and many hikes offered during this festival. Visitors of all ages and skill levels will find an event or activity that will make their time at the festival the most fun they have had in the open air.

The Festival of the Great Outdoors is a chance for families to discover and even educate themselves on the many wonders that are offered in the great outdoors, an opportunity for the trained athlete to bring his/her skill to another level, and the novice to unearth the passion that lies within to explore more.

Be it a gardening or kite building class, gap to gap guided hike, bird watching, easy stroll, mountain biking, river kayaking, or star gazing… this festival is an event that will inspire. Step outside and breath in all the wonders that are the out-of-doors.
