About the Ski resort
|
|
Located in the heart of New England, Wachusett offers real mountain skiing just minutes away from Boston, Rhode Island and Connecticut.
From the 2,006-foot summit on a clear day, you will see six states and Boston from a far.
With a 1,000-foot vertical drop and 8 lifts servicing 22 trails, Wachusett Mountain will please beginners and experts alike. Snowboarders are welcome on all trails and a half-pipe.
Wachusett Mountain is ideal for a weekend ski trip, or a week long vacation. Choose from ski-in/ski-out or nearby lodging. You'll also find a variety of delicious New England cuisine. Be sure to visit the Wachusett Village Restaurant for breakfast, lunches, apre ski or dinner!
In addition, the resort boasts three distinct food service areas, a Mountainside Ski Shop, a superb PSIA Ski and Snowboard School featuring a highly-rated Polar Kids Children's Programs, and a rental shop with all the latest equipment, including alpine and snowboards.
With hundred percent snowmaking coverage, well-manicured slopes and night lighting provide an opportunity to enjoy the entire mountain both day and night.
Wachusett Mountain is located on Route 140, which can be reached from points south and west by taking Exit 5 off Route 190. Head north for nine miles to the access road. From points north and east, take Route 2 west to Exit 25 to Route 140 south.
