Stowe ski vacations Skiing & snowboarding in Stowe, Vermont
Overview
Stowe Mountain Resort is just 5 miles from the pretty 200 year old village of Stowe in the New England county of Vermont and just a few hours drive from the historic city of Boston.
The 485 acres of skiable terrain is spread over Mont Mansfield and Spruce Peak providing 116 trails and a maximum vertical of 719m, the fifth largest in New England.
The apres-ski is on the quiter side when compared to Killington, which is where the younger crowd tend to go, plus Stowe is further north which insulates it a little from the Boston weekend skiers. Having said that, the Village has over 50 bars and restaurants to choose from.
