Hogback Mountain Scenic Overlook
Hogback Mountain Scenic Overlook sits directly beside Route 9 (the Molly Stark Scenic Byway) in Marlboro, roughly 14 miles west of Brattleboro. From an elevation of about 2,400 feet, the overlook delivers a 100-mile panorama spanning three states — southern Vermont's ridgelines, northern Massachusetts, and western New Hampshire. The Hogback Mountain Country Store and gift shop are located at the pull-off and provide parking, a small restroom, and seasonal food options. The viewpoint is accessible within a few steps from the parking area, making it a zero-effort destination on a fast-moving tour of the Molly Stark Trail.
Route 9 (Molly Stark Byway) is Vermont's main east-west motorcycle corridor in the south, running through the Green Mountain National Forest with sweeping curves, forested grades, and minimal truck traffic. Hogback sits at the high point midway between Brattleboro and Bennington — it's the natural stopping point on a full Molly Stark traverse and delivers the widest view on the entire route.
