From Albany there are a couple of ways.
1. Take the Northway (I87) to Exit 20, take Rt 9 for 1/3 mile to Rt 149 East to NY4 North to Whitehall NY then stay on 4 to Rutland to I91. I 91 North to Newport.
2. Take same route as #1 except once you cross into VT, take VT22A North to Burlington. Once in Burlington, take I89 south to I91 North.
You will hit hills regardless crossing W-E in VT. 22A is a nice 2 lane and you'll pass the VT Teddy Bear Company taking this way. NY ADK Mtns will be off to the left for nice scenery.
Fuel stops if you have a diesel:
NY: Scotty's at Exit 16 off the Northway
VT: Name escapes me at the moment, but nice one along VT 22A about 20-30 miles north of Fair Haven
Irving Oil in Lyndonville VT off I91
