Onion River Race & Ramble
Beginning with its headwaters in Cabot, the Winooski River meanders through 94 miles of diverse landscape to Colchester, where it empties into Lake Champlain. Along the way, it beckons nature lovers, including the canoers, kayakers and paddle boarders participating in the second annual Onion River Race and Ramble. Competitors, and those looking for a more leisurely float — aka the Ramble — hit the water for a 10-mile paddle between Bolton and Richmond, then refuel with a locavore lunch. Proceeds from this aquatic adventure support initiatives to improve public access and land restoration in the Winooski River watershed.
