Londonderry, Vermont

Londonderry is located on the banks of the West River and at the intersection of routes 11 and 100. It is also a short distance from the Stratton and Bromley ski areas, a fact that has helped to dot its landscape with a number of fine lodging and restaurant options.

Londonderry originally contained the neighboring town of Windham, from which it was separated in 1795. It was named after the New Hampshire Londonderry, the origin of many of its earliest settlers.

The eastern border of Londonderry is the long ridge of Glebe Mountain, which peaks out at 2940 feet.
