About Us

The Vermont Institute of Natural Science (VINS), nestled in the picturesque forests of Quechee, VT, is a must-visit destination for nature enthusiasts, families, and curious minds. Known for its Raptor Enclosures, visitors can marvel at majestic birds of prey, including eagles, hawks, and owls, up close while learning about their rehabilitation stories. The Forest Canopy Walk, a stunning treetop adventure, offers breathtaking views and a bird's-eye perspective of the surrounding natural beauty.

Engage with interactive exhibits in the Nature Center, where educational displays bring wildlife conservation to life. Younger visitors will enjoy the hands-on Discovery Den, while the whole family can partake in live animal presentations and guided nature programs. Whether you're strolling through serene trails or attending seasonal events, VINS offers a perfect blend of education and adventure.
