Randolph Vermont
A Blend of Agriculture, State Of The Art Technology And Memorable Performances

Very close to being the geographic center of Vermont, Randolph is a working town with a lively arts community, state-of-the-art technical, engineering, and medical services, high-quality manufacturing, as well as scenic back roads, covered bridges, and working dairy farms.

Downtown Randolph offers historic railroad-era architecture with many Victorian-era homes, a pedestrian-friendly streetscape with shops, restaurants, parks, and a friendly atmosphere. The railroad depot area is registered as a National Historic District and has ample free parking.

Chandler Center for the Arts, built in 1907, is one of Vermont's outstanding performance venues. The Chandler Center sponsors an active performing and visual arts series and has been acclaimed for its superb acoustics. The nearby Kimball Library celebrated its centennial in 2003 and is a classic small town library. Randolph is where the Morgan horse breed began to grow and achieve fame, and is home to Vermont Technical College, and the Vermont Veterans' Memorial Cemetery.

The third branch of the White River runs along the town's eastern border. Nearby is the 18-hole Montague Golf Course and more than 240 miles of mapped trails for hiking, biking, cross-country skiing, snowmobiling, and snowshoeing. Working farms, maple sugarhouses and back roads add to the flavor of Randolph. Skiing, hiking, country inns, picturesque rivers, and country roads are part of the fun of exploring the villages and country lanes of the greater Randolph area.

Visit the famous Floating Bridge in nearby Brookfield. Spend a day exploring the back roads of Orange County, including the picturesque shire town of Chelsea with its beautiful town green. In September, don't miss the world famous New World Music Festival in Randolph and the Tunbridge World's Fair. Visit the Porter Music Box Museum, see on-farm cheese making at Neighborly Farms, stop by the Randolph Farmers Market (June – October) and stay at one of the local inns or B&Bs.

Located minutes from Interstate 89, take exit 4, turn on to Route 66 west and proceed three miles to downtown Randolph. Going east on Route 66 takes you through Randolph Center and connects you with East Randolph on Route 14 and Brookfield's 'Pond Village' on Route 65. Randolph also features daily Amtrak service.
