Backcountry Skiing
Head for the backcountry for an extraordinary Stowe skiing experience. If you've advanced to a place where skiing on groomed trails is a bit boring, we have just the thing for you. On our 2,500 acres, we've identified 25 miles of perfect territory for laying tracks on un-groomed snow.
Backcountry gear rentals are available, with 24-hour advance notice. If you're new to backcountry skiing, we can get you started with rentals and assistance from our expert staff.
Snowshoeing
Dashing through the snow is a great way to enjoy the outdoors in the wintertime, get some exercise, and have fun all at the same time! Our resort offers ample terrain where you can snowshoe on your own or with a scheduled group tour.
Before venturing out onto the trails (or off the trails), take advantage of our expertly taught classes and clinics.
We’ll cover everything you need to know about snowshoeing in Vermont, from understanding binding systems and choosing the right clothing to efficient, energy-saving techniques for steep hill climbs.
Whether you want to join a group tour or go out on your own, we’ll help you plan a route that suits your experience and confidence.
Snowshoeing is dependent on snow accumulation and weather conditions. Contact the Outdoor Center for trail reports and changes to scheduled tours.
