Mission

Carve Your Own Path to Adventure!

Here in Vermont, just about all of us have swung an axe or a hatchet at one time or another. As we prepare for a long, cold winter, or chop some kindling for a campfire, we might have even thrown a few axes at a tree or a target. There is something obvious about the idea and we think you’ll agree that throwing axes for sport is a great time!

As Urban Axe Throwing has developed over the last few years across Canada and United States cities, we knew Burlington needed a venue of its own. BurlyAxe looks forward to building a local community of axe throwers. Some who come for sport and competition, some for bonding, and teamwork. Whatever your reason for visiting, we welcome you to activate your inner lumberjack.

Story

As Urban Axe Throwing evolved, Burlington craved its own haven. BurlyAxe emerged, beckoning a diverse community—sport enthusiasts, competitors, and those seeking bonds. Come, awaken your inner lumberjack at BurlyAxe, where every throw tells a story.
