If you want to feel as if you’ve escaped to another world, but aren’t in the mood to take a long trip, plan to take an excursion to Lake Memphremagog in Vermont. Aside from being breathtaking to look at, Lake Memphremagog is truly unique because it’s one of the few glacial lakes in Vermont. In addition, it spreads from Newport, Vermont to Quebec, Canada.

As you’ll soon learn, although Lake Memphremagog is based in the northern part of the Green Mountain State, it’s definitely worth a trip.

While Lake Memphrémagog spans 31 miles on the surface, only 25 percent of this body of water is based in Vermont. In addition, only five out of the 21 islands on the lake are in Vermont.
