Bolton is a town in Chittenden County, Vermont, United States. The population was 971 at the 2000 census.

The character of the town is predominantly rural. There are four principal settlements:
* Bolton proper is located in the Winooski River valley, on the north side of the river.
* West Bolton is located in the northwest corner of the town, and is accessed primarily from the adjacent town of Jericho.
* A thin strip of land, known as "the back side of the river", is located south of the Winooski River. The only road access is through the neighboring towns of Richmond and Duxbury.
* A small number of year-round residents live near the Bolton Valley ski area.

The principal transportation artery of the town is US Route 2, which follows the north side of the Winooski. I-89 passes through the town parallel to Route 2 but does not have an interchange there.

The Long Trail passes through Bolton on its way from Camel's Hump to Mount Mansfield.
