BURKE MOUNTAIN, Vermont

The ski area has two main sections of terrain.

The “Lower Mountain” consists of mostly Beginner terrain and is accessed by a high-speed detachable quad chairlift. There is also a “Bunny Slope” accessed by a J-bar surface lift. A beginner carpet lift was installed in 2010 to make the learning progression easier for first time skiers. There are a couple of terrain parks and a beginner glade (Enchanted Forest) as well.

The “Upper Mountain” consists of Intermediate and Advanced terrain. Trails on the upper mountain are accessed via two lifts, a Leitner-Poma platter lift and a high-speed quad. Trails vary from wide open groomed runs (Upper/Lower Dipper, Upper/Lower Willoughby), to steep ungroomed trails (Doug’s Drop), to glades (Caveman, Throbulator, Jungle). The intermediate/expert East Bowl trail is considered to be a signature “old New England style” trail due to its long, narrow, winding nature.

Hotel Accommodations

Unlike a lot of slope-side hotels, there’s not a bad view from the Burke Mountain Hotel.  This is a ski in/ski out property.  Plus, out every room is a view of either the mountain or Willoughby Gap.  Sit at the window, turn on the gas fireplace and it’s like you have a slope-side cabin all to yourself.

Some of the amenities included: The View Pub, Bear Essentials, Hot Tub, Fitness Center, Laundry facility.
