Hosted by Vernont Overland, the Vermont Overland Rally (VOR) is a 4×4 overlanding birdwatching rally. Participants convene with their state of the art overlanding setups for rugged camping in an intimate rural venue. They awake to the irresistible aromas of Pete’s cookshack, our on-site breakfast café where hot coffee flows around an open fire from daybreak. Then everyone disperses in small groups into the backcountry in their well-appointed rigs using the provided downloaded trail mapping to traverse an overlanding route of their choosing looking for various indigenous bird species and stopping at great localvore spots along the way. At day’s end, the participants gather back at the vendor area to sample a craft beer from our local nano-brewery vendor and bond with the tribe telling war stories of the day’s adventures. Soon it’s time to grab dinner from our farm to table vintage food truck, have a poolside funnel cake and then take to the campfires scattered about at various campsites. VOR is a place to come and let the true overlander in you shine through. You’ll use your vehicle, equipment and training to their fullest and form lasting bonds with your fellow overlanding tribe members. A not to be missed overlanding bucket lister for sure!
