Experience one of the year’s most anticipated traditions at the Naulakha Estate during the annual Rhododendron Tour, happening June 5–7.
On Friday, June 5 from 6:00 PM, enjoy an exclusive Cocktail Party featuring intimate access to the estate, along with hors d’oeuvres, cocktails, wine, beer, Scott Farm hard cider, and live music.
The main daytime tour takes place Saturday, June 6 and Sunday, June 7 from 10:00 AM–4:30 PM. Guests will have rare access to the home and grounds of Rudyard Kipling, normally open only to overnight guests. Explore the main house, Carriage House, the newly restored Naulakha Stable and its exhibit on Kipling’s life in Vermont, and the breathtaking grounds—including the famous football-field-length Rhododendron Tunnel, expected to be in full bloom.
This year’s event is especially meaningful, having been recognized as a Signature Event by the Vermont Department of Tourism. It also marks the first time visitors can fully explore the rehabilitated loft space inside the newly restored stable.
Tickets often sell out early, and this is the only time each year that the estate is open to the public in this way. Proceeds from every ticket support the preservation of this treasured landmark and ongoing efforts to create a climate-resilient future for the property.
