Peru, VTThe western part of the town is

taken up entirely by mountains, only the

three highest of which are identified by

name. Mount Tabor from the town of the

same name, but which got left behind in

Peru when the boundary was adjusted, and

Styles Peak comes from a family that once

owned it. Perhaps best known of all

because of the ski resort there is Bromley

Mountain, the only remaining evidence of

the town's original name.

The mountainous beauty of Peru

and Bromley Mountain Resort are a major

draw for tourists to a town of only 375.

Peru appeared as “Hadleyville” in

the 1987 film Baby Boom starring Diane

Keaton.
