2 Best Sights in Northern Vermont, Vermont

The closest thing you'll get to a Willy Wonka experience in Vermont, the 30-minute tours at the famous ice cream brand's factory are unabashedly corny and only skim the surface of the behind-the-scenes goings-on, but this flaw is almost forgiven when the samples are dished out. To see the machines at work, visit on a weekday (but call ahead to confirm if they will indeed be in operation). Another highlight is the "Flavor Graveyard," where flavors of yore are given tribute with tombstones inscribed with humorous poetry.

Tucked away behind the Hula campus, Burlington's unofficial tech and co-working headquarters, Vermont-based SAVU has set up two of its high-end Scandi-inspired saunas right on the shore of Lake Champlain; they're ideally placed for an after-work sweat and a cold plunge, but offer a relaxing break if you're on vacation, too.
