Wachusett Mountain
First-time visitors to Wachusett Mountain are consistently impressed with an array of amenities normally associated with northern New England resorts. The trio of express quads can move over 9,000 skiers uphill per hour. There’s no need to slow down once you get going, as the Bullock Lodge Cider House and Waffle Cabin offer on-mountain nourishment, including hot cider donuts and turnovers from Red Apple Farm. The 1930s stone hut, built by the Civilian Conservation Corp, is another nod to the environmental legacy of the area.
Located just one hour from Boston and 30 minutes from Worcester, Wachusett Mountain offers an array of destination resort services for skiers and snowboarders. MTNside Ski & Ride provides a complete selection of snow sports gear and accessories, and the Instant Action Demo Center rents the season’s hottest skis and boards to try before you buy (They’ll even refund the demo cost should you buy). The MTNside Service Center offers immediate adjustments as well as tuning to keep you at peak performance. There are full rental and lesson packages available, as well as private lessons or clinics to fine-tune your technique.

Advanced skiers and snowboarders might take a top-to-bottom 1,000-foot ride via the 10th Mtn. Trail and Smith Walton (not Oxbow), while intermediates head down Conifer Connection, among other options. Because these different runs funnel back to the base area, it’s easy to rendezvous at the bottom.
