203. History of Maple Sugaring

On weekends, visitors can walk through time along the Sugarbush Trail from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. to see the sap-collecting methods and syrup-making processes used by Native Americans, pioneers and modern sugar farmers.  The History of Maple Sugaring hikes will lead to the Sugarhouse, where guests can watch sap being boiled into delicious, 100-percent pure maple syrup.  Guided public hikes leave the Sugarhouse every 20 minutes (the last hike leaves at 3:40 p.m.).
