Montgomery pairs mountain-town energy with small-community ease, set along the Trout River in Franklin County. Outdoor enthusiasts prize its proximity to the lifts, trails, and four-season amenities at Jay Peak, with skiing, riding, and the Pump House waterpark at the ready via the official Jay Peak Resort. Closer to home, hike or snowshoe among dramatic cliffs and spruce at Hazen’s Notch State Park, and explore naturalist-led programs and conserved land through the Hazen’s Notch Association. The Long Trail’s legacy looms large here too; planning tools and trail stewardship updates from the Green Mountain Club make it easy to launch a weekend on the ridge.
Families appreciate the scale and community feel of Montgomery’s K–8 school and its district support through the Franklin Northeast Supervisory Union. For high school, many students use school choice to attend nearby options in Enosburg Falls and Richford, creating a flexible path from elementary through graduation.
Daily life brings simple pleasures: a vibrant arts calendar, seasonal farmers markets, and a celebrated collection of historic covered bridges, all highlighted by the Town of Montgomery. Paddlers can branch into regional adventures via the Northern Forest Canoe Trail, and cyclists and skiers find endless mileage in the Green Mountains and over the gap into Jay.
