As you might expect from an inn on 160 acres of Green Mountain hillside, we
DO offer Cross Country Skiing right here at Windham Hill. We mark about 10 km
of trails with our snowmobile and we offer complimentary use of our somewhat
limited equipment inventory. If you yearn for the elegant tracked trails only
possible with professional grooming equipment, there are many local options
(Windham Hill favorites listed below), most well within a half hour’s
drive.
For those interested in back country skiing, there are many more options in
nearby State Parks and the Green Mountain National Forest.
