About this Location

Otter View Park is a 0.6-mile lightly trafficked loop trail located near Middlebury, Vermont that features a boardwalk connecting to Otter Creek River and is good for all skill levels. The trail is primarily used for hiking, walking, nature trips, and bird watching. Dogs are also able to use this trail but must be kept on a leash.

Key natural resources of the park include nesting habitats for birds, migratory feeding and resting areas for birds and other wildlife, wetland and upland habitat for breeding, raising young, and other seasonal uses by native year-round species. OVP is also designed to slow stormwater runoff, which enhances water quality discharging into the wetland and Otter Creek. Otter View Park includes 3 small residential house lots to supplement any lost tax revenues for the adjoining towns and to provide for needed housing within walking distance of downtown.
