Vermont Route 114 (VT 114) is a 51.24-mile (82.46 km) state highway in northeastern Vermont in the United States. It runs northward from U.S. Route 5 (US 5) in Lyndon until nearing the Canada–United States border in the town of Norton; thereafter, the road continues east to the New Hampshire state line in Canaan. The vast majority of VT 114 is situated within Essex County; however, the route also passes through small, isolated portions of Caledonia and Orleans Counties.
Moose are most often encountered on four roads in Vermont, of which this is one. They are seen from East Burke to Canaan.
VT 114 begins at an intersection with US 5 and VT 122 in the town of Lyndon in northern Caledonia County. US 5 heads south as Main Street through the incorporated village of Lyndonville and north as Lynburke Road toward Burke. VT 122 heads west along Stevens Loop toward a junction with Interstate 91 and the town of Wheelock. VT 114 heads northeast along East Burke Road. The highway begins just north of the Passumpsic River, crosses to the east side of the river, then crosses the East Branch of the river just to the south of the confluence of the East and West branches to form the main river. The highway follows the valley of the river to the west of Burke Mountain. VT 114 crosses the East Branch again before entering the town of Burke. In the hamlet of East Burke, the highway passes to the west of Burke Mountain Ski Area. VT 114 briefly passes through the Essex County town of East Haven, then through the town of Newark in Caledonia County, where the highway is known as Island Pond Road.
