Peru pairs mountain-town energy with everyday ease, making it a smart move for anyone who wants year-round recreation without giving up a close-knit feel. Winter and summer revolve around Bromley Mountain’s ski trails and adventure park, with lessons, lifts, and family-friendly events run by the resort’s team at Bromley Mountain. On warm days, locals cool off at the tree-lined Hapgood Pond Recreation Area, while expansive trail networks in the Green Mountain National Forest offer four-season hiking, biking, and foliage viewing under federal stewardship. Community pride shines during the long-running Peru Fair each September, and the village hub at JJ Hapgood General Store & Eatery serves excellent coffee, market staples, and a lively lunch counter. Stay in the loop through the Town of Peru’s notices and meeting updates on its official site.
