About Underhill State Park

Underhill State Park sits within the Mount Mansfield State Forest on the western flank of Vermont's highest peak. Its best-known draw is hiking, with several trails climbing toward the summit ridge, and the popular Sunset Ridge Trail is about three miles to the top. The park also offers tent and lean-to camping, a CCC-built pavilion with a fireplace, and picnic facilities. Visitors should expect limited parking and should stay on marked trails to protect fragile alpine plants near the summit.
