Northeast Kingdom Loop Auto Tour
If you chose not to head back but to continue your 200-mile loop, follow Rte. 111 from Island Pond, Vermont, northwest through Morgan to Newport. You will pass by Lake Seymour at Morgan Center that offers stunning views. From Newport follow Rte. 105 to North Troy through rolling farmland. From North Troy, follow Rte. 101 South to Troy, passing by two turn-offs. The first takes you over Richford Mountain and somewhat off our suggested route. The second turns onto Rte. 242 through the village of Jay, over Jay Peak to Montgomery Center, and the start of one of the most scenic routes in Vermont.
From Montgomery Center, follow Rte. 58 to Lowell, which starts off paved but turns to rough dirt as you climb through Hazen’s Notch, where you are literally engulfed in fall foliage. Stay on Rte. 58 crossing over Rte. 100 into Irasburg and the junction of Rte. 14. Follow Rte. 14 into Hardwick, stopping along the way at Craftsbury if you have the time. In Hardwick, take Rte. 15 southeast to West Danville, where you pick up Rte. 2 East and head back into St. Johnsbury.
