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 14th with weekend lift service the first couple of weekends and will then switch to 5 day a week lift service through 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 Ralph’s Rec 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.
Scenic Chair Lift Rides
Hop on a scenic chair lift ride and watch the world roll out beneath you! Whether you’re catching a magical sunset, leaf peeping in the fall, or just along for the ride, it’s a super fun (and low-effort) way to take in all the mountain vibes without breaking a sweat.
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 spread out across the expansive lawn or hang out in the tavern.
And don’t miss the sweetest treat of the season—Vermont creemees served at the highest elevation in the state. Because nothing says “summer in the mountains” like a swirl of soft serve with a view.
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!
Our lineup for the summer 2025 season is booked, and we look forward to sharing that Wednesday and Friday night schedule with you very soon – stay tuned!
Keep it tuned to the page below as we announce this year’s lineup later 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.
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.
