Gifford Woods State Park, State park and historic site in Killington, United States
The 285-acre woodland contains multiple campsites, lean-tos, and rental cabins at the base of Pico Peak in central Vermont.
The Civilian Conservation Corps constructed the park facilities in 1933, including the office, ranger quarters, picnic areas, and initial trail system.
The park serves as a connection point to the Appalachian Trail, enabling hikers to access this long-distance path through the eastern United States.
Visitors can access flush toilets, hot showers, and running water facilities, while firewood and ice remain available for purchase at the park store.
The protected area includes one of Vermont's last remaining old-growth hardwood forests, with sugar maple, beech, yellow birch, and hemlock trees.
