Red Light District is a bouldering area in Vermont, about a mile from Montpelier. It sits right next to the state capital, making it an easy stop for climbers who want to pair a session on the rocks with a walk or a visit to town. The area has six bouldering routes, all rated on the V scale. The easiest is The Easy One at V0, and the hardest is Project at V7-8. The median grade runs V2-3, so there's something for climbers of all levels. The routes are named Beans, Sardines and Beans and Sardines, among others. For a change of pace, the State House Trail is about a mile away. In winter, Tower Circle and the Fitness Trail offer cross-country skiing within about a mile and a half.
