Vermont is home to the first U.S. Olympic gold medal winner in Nordic skiing, Bill Koch, as well as Olympic medal winners Ross Powers, Hannah Teter, Billy Kidd, Andrea Meade and many others.  The Green Mountain State is a haven for skiers and riders of all tastes and experience levels.

As snowshoeing has caught fire again, many of our cross-country centers have added terrain just for snowshoeing. Staff at cross-country centers will bring an enormous amount of experience and enthusiasm to your vacation, whether it's pioneering new ways to teach cross country skiing and leading back country snowshoe treks.

Vermont has 20 alpine ski resorts and 30 cross-country touring centers throughout the state. With 6,052 acres of alpine terrain, 1,269 trails, 179 lifts, and 885 miles of Nordic trails, Vermont skiing accommodates every level, from the advanced downhiller to the training toddler, from moguls and snowboarding to quiet cross-country jaunts on skis or snowshoes.
