Birdwatching in Vermont, pp. 81-82.
From historic Route 7A between Manchester and Arlington, Vermont, Skyline Drive, the longest privately owned, paved toll road in the United States, ascends 3,248 feet over 5.2 miles to the top of Mount Equinox. In continuous operation since its completion in 1947, it is one of the country's safest, best-engineered, well-constructed toll roads.
There are several vistas and picnic areas along the Drive, which winds upward through four distinct forest types. The Charterhouse of the Transfiguration is visible in the valley on your left as you crest the mountain, the only Carthusian monastery in North America.
The AllTrails website has a description and map of a hike at Equinox Mountain.
