Killington Ski Resort
Known as the “Beast of the East,” Killington Ski Resort is by far one of the top Vermont vacation spots for winter enthusiasts. Spanning almost 2,000 miles across seven mountain peaks, the resort offers a total of 155 trails and 21 ski lifts. This makes it the most extensive ski area on the East coast. It also happens to be home to New England’s largest vertical drop at 3,050 feet.
The resort offers trails ranging from beginner to expert. Trails include "Outer Limits" a double black diamond mogul trail. Part of the mountain is set aside for terrain parks, with five snowboard and alpine parks. The resort, however, doesn’t just offer incredible skiing but also first-class amenities. The Killington Grand Resort Hotel provides several types of lodging, including penthouses that can sleep up to 10 guests. There’s also a cafe, restaurant, pool, spa, and wellness center, all of which are sure to keep you entertained when you’re not on the slopes. For those who’d prefer to check out the mountain during the summer months, the resort does offer a number of outdoor activities, including golfing, mountain biking, gondola rides, as well as a ropes course.
