From Newport as a centre, many interesting excursions may be made, from the drives and walks around the village and the bay, to the restfulvoyages down the lake to Owls Head and Georgeville, and the longerjourneys, full of memorable attraction, to Willoughby Lake or Jay Peak.Only five miles distant, the frontier-line of Canada marks the divisionbetween the two great Anglo-Saxon nations of the west, daughters of Britain, and elder sisters of Australia and New Zealand. Newport is a capital point for fishermen to visit, for in its vicinity thereis many a pellucid stream, where brook-trout rise to the seductive fly, downamong the fair valleys of Vermont.
