There are two kinds of people: those who ski and those who snowboard. And in Massachusetts, there's plenty going on for both kinds.
Love a good cardio workout and beautiful scenery? Head west and try Canterbury Farm Cross Country Ski Area's 22 kilometers of cross-country skiing on groomed and tracked trails. Prefer downhill action? Wachusett Mountain Ski Area in Central Massachusetts features the highest mountain in Massachusetts east of the Connecticut River. Avid snowboarder? Jiminy Peak Mountain Resort is the largest ski and snowboard resort in New England.
Massachusetts also welcomes skiiers and snowboarders of all levels and abilities. Advanced? You'll be impressed by the variety of challenging terrains. Beginner? You'll find patient, experienced instructors and very affordable learn-to-ski packages.
