whiteface mountain
What if you discovered a brand new ski resort with the greatest vertical of any lift-serviced mountain in the Northeast, with mile after mile of impeccably groomed cruising trails, 98% snowmaking coverage, a 5-star ski and snowboard school and diverse, amenity-rich ski towns surrounding it?
Rediscover Whiteface, home to the very best ski experiences the East has to offer. Simply put, Whiteface offers more of everything: more snowmaking, more inspiring expert terrain, more long, rolling groomers, including the longest single intermediate run in the Northeast, the 2.1-mile long Wilmington Trail; more learning, more adventure, more fun, more off-mountain attractions you can't find anywhere else, such as bobsledding down an Olympic track or groomed Nordic skiing or strolling through the lakeside Olympic village. And, more hotel and dining options than you'll find in any hamlet in southern Vermont.
In the summertime, you'll find great activities and adventures for the whole family at Whiteface, from the Adventure Zone and Guided Hikes to scenic Cloudsplitter Gondola Rides. In the fall, take a drive up the Veterans' Memorial Highway to the summit of Whiteface for breathtaking views of Adirondack fall foliage!
