Launch + Parking

Getting to Lake Ninevah is only possible in the winter via Shunpike Road and Lake Ninevah Road from the Mount Holly side, off Vermont Route 103. Do not believe your GPS if it tells you to go another way. The other roads are closed and impassable in the winter.

Access to Lake Ninevah is limited, tightly controlled, and somewhat controversial. The only public access point is the Fish and Wildlife Access Area.directions Parking is limited, and can easily fill up with ice fishers' vehicles.

According to Vermont Fish and Wildlife access area regulations, ice skating is not a permitted activity and thus parking at fishing access areas is not allowed. That said, this is usually only a concern if the parking fills up and ice fisherman cannot park (since they have priority).
