Cross Country Skiing
Cross country skiing is one of the best ways to experience the winter magic of Vermont. Skis are easily rentable at several shops in Manchester. In no time at all, you can be schussing a trail through Hildene, the Viking Nordic Center, Wild Wings and more.
Downhill Skiing and Snowboarding
The Aspen at Manchester is perfectly located in close proximity to both Bromley and Stratton Mountains, two of the most popular skiing destinations in Vermont. Both offer various terrain and slope grades for all ski levels, including snowboarding and children's ski schools.
