Summer & Fall in the Green Mountains
Get outside and soak up the sunJoin us for summer fun set high in the gorgeous Green Mountains of Vermont. Although we are indeed conveniently located just 30 minutes from Burlington, Stowe, AND the Mad River Valley/Waterbury areas – all boasting tremendous activities for the whole family – once you land here at our mountain oasis, you just may not want to leave.
Mountain Bike Park – Lift Service for All Ability Levels
Our targeted opening day of summer lift service is Saturday, June 8 with weekend lift service the first couple of weekends and 5 day a week lift service Wednesday, June 26 to Labor Day (Wed to Fri noon to dusk | Sat to Sun 10am to 5pm).
There’s a little something for everyone with a Progression Zone to hone your skills, beginner cross country trails (down by the Sports Center – not lift serviced) and of course the lift serviced bike park, which now offers everything from our beginner flow trail to intermediate blue jump trail to intermediate flow and tech to our legendary gnarly, rowdy expert trails.
With a rental fleet and guides/coaches to help folks of all ability levels progress their riding, there’s a little something for everyone on the mountain bike trails at Bolton Valley.
Dining & Creemees in the Mountains
Stay tuned for more details on this summer’s food and beverage options and schedule, but like last year it will be centered around the Main Base Area so you can easily grab food, drinks and creemees and spread out across the expansive lawn or hang out in the tavern… whatever you prefer!
Those same sunsets you’ve grown to know and love in the winter are all the more spectacular taken in from a comfortable Adirondack chair after a glorious hike, mountain bike, round of disc golf or while watching live music!
Maps
Is there a more beautiful place than the Green Mountains of Vermont in summer and fall? It’s hard to think of one, that’s for sure. The mountains are absolutely majestic this time of year, coming alive with nature’s palette of wildflowers and vibrant reds, oranges and yellows of Vermont’s legendary fall foliage season.
On top of that, our mountain operations team has been working hard to maintain our trails for summer/fall mountain biking, hiking, trail running and disc golfing. Whatever your preferred mountain recreation, it’s always a good idea to do some planning before you set off on your fantastic voyage.
Live Music on the Lawn
This FREE live concert series has been a huge hit the last couple of summers, so of course we’re bringing it back this summer!
We’re currently booking our lineup for the summer 2024 season, but looking at getting things going late June and holding shows primarily on Wednesday nights this year.
Keep it tuned to the page below as we announce this year’s lineup this spring!
Summer Camps
We have three different options: Beginner and Intermediate Mountain Bike Camp, and Mountain Kids Camp.
Like years past, camps are expected to sell out in advance and will be staggered every week from late June to late August.
Weddings
We recently purchased The Ponds and also did a beautiful renovation on the Timberline Base Lodge and are excited to offer both spaces for your special day.
Reach out to our Wedding Sales/Coordinator to learn more about making memories in the mountains to last a lifetime!
Hiking
Join us for Small Hikes with Big Views or Longer Hikes that Connect to Vermont’s Legendary Long Trail.
Either Way, Finish Your Hike With Delicious Food & Drinks at the Resort to Celebrate!
Lodging
It would be hard to list all the reasons you should consider staying here at Bolton Valley this summer and fall, but allow us to offer a few:
– Newly renovated hotel rooms… I mean, come on, look at them they’re gorgeous!
– Scenic lift rides just outside your door (5 days a week Uuly & August, 3 days a week in spring and after Labor Day through fall foliage season)
– With a base area set above 2,000 feet, simply stroll down the hall/stairs and you have access to thousands of acres of hiking, swimming, mountain biking, disc golfing and endless views of the stunning Green Mountains (well, if you’re on the scenic lookout tower at the top of Vista Peak, you can throw White Mountains and Adirondacks in there, too!)
– So many great events for the whole family
– Rest & relaxation in Vermont! With our incredible location just 30 minutes from Burlington, Stowe, the Mad River Valley and more, you can easily explore all that Vermont has to offer and return to your home base in the mountains for tremendous sunset views to the west from the comfort of your Adirondack chair (and if it’s a Wednesday or Saturday night, we’ll throw in some free live music to boot!)
Hope to see you around the mountain soon!
Disc Golf
Join us on our short 9 hole mountain chip ‘n putt disc golf course. Located right under the Vista Quad chair lift in the main base area, a great little activity for the whole family. Free to play and within earshot of the Wednesday night free live music series too we might add.
