Stratton Mountain’s Nordic Center features 10km of cross-country ski trails groomed for both classic and skate skiing and 3km of single-track snowshoe trails. Beginners and experts alike will enjoy the tree-lined trail system meandering through a Wildlife Conservation Area. Cross-country skiing, snowshoeing and fat biking are all available activities at the Nordic Center, with rentals available for each activity. Options for fat biking may include all the Nordic ski trails, depending on the firmness of the snow. Enjoy a full winter of access with the Nordic Center Season Pass.

Group, private and semi-private lessons are available on weekends and some holidays and are taught by instructors certified by the U.S. Ski and Snowboard Association and Professional Ski Instructors of America. For private lessons on weekdays, please call us to verify availability.
