There are also woodland trails for those who want to explore the forest. If you go further east, you will encounter the town of Woodstock, where you can sit back, relax, and enjoy some delicious food outside with your pawesome pal!

Indulge your taste buds with gourmet cuisine at Baxter’s Restaurant inside Rutland Country Club. The restaurant is open to the public for lunch and dinner, and they have patio seating to accommodate you and your canine companion. While you’re in Central Rutland, you can also check out Pine Hill Park; this park is over 300 acres and contains 16 miles of trails, so you won’t run out of places to explore!

Wallingford

Wallingford is a charming, close-knit neighborhood resting about ten miles south of Rutland. It is worth a visit just to take a pleasant stroll through the small-town streets past mom-and-pop stores and the small woods and ponds that dot the area. There is even more to do there, however, including hiking White Rocks National Recreation Area. The area has a number of trails and welcomes four-legged friends if they are leashed. There are some nice local dining options in Wallingford as well: try Sal’s South in the center of town for some great homemade Italian food. They offer outdoor seating to accommodate dog owners!

West Rutland

West Rutland is another great neighborhood where you and your waggy companion can get a taste of nature. Bird Mountain Wildlife Management Area is the highlight of West Rutland: it spans nearly 800 acres, and the terrain includes former farmland and pastures, as well as the majestic Birdseye Mountain. If hiking the area’s trails works up your appetite, then you’re in luck. Blue Cat Bistro is close by; they serve delectable Italian food like pasta and brick oven pizza, and they have dog-friendly outdoor seating. Note that this is a family-run restaurant, and they are only open for dinner. Their hours are Tuesday through Sunday, 5 pm to 9 pm.

Proctor

If you travel six short miles north of Rutland along beautiful Otter Creek, you will arrive in the neighborhood of Proctor. Proctor might be a relatively small neighborhood, but there are two great attractions there that you won’t want to miss. The first is Proctor Town Forest, which has superb hiking trails through the scenic wooded valleys that characterize this area. The second is Whipple Hollow Wildlife Management Area. This over 500-acre protected forest is also a fantastic place for hiking and exploring nature. The Castledon River runs through the area and contributes to the authentic Northeastern atmosphere.
