Welcome to Burlington

On the eastern shoreline of Lake Champlain that forms the border between Vermont and New York State to the west, Burlington is the most-populous city in Vermont. The site was initially settled in 1775, but the Revolutionary War delayed the establishment of the town until 1785. Famed as the birthplace Revolutionary War hero Ethan Allen, whose former homestead is now a museum, Burlington has a historic downtown that has been transformed into a pedestrian mall called the Church Street Market Place. Other attractions include a waterfront walking path, summer bike ferries to the Lake Champlain Islands, sailing and kayaking, and brewery tours that include the East Coast’s third-oldest brewpub.
