Gore Mountain Ski
Featured In
Stunning views of the Adirondacks are the backdrop to Gore Mountain. High-speed quads provide access to all four of its peaks and Straight Brook Valley and the latest addition to the property, called the Backwoods trail, gives guests a 60-foot-wide intermediate-rated adventure for further family-friendly exploration. Additionally, there’s twilight skiing; a cross-country trail network of 11 piste (groomed) loops; and snowshoeing adventures through the “largest marble-cave entrance in the East.” Gore also expanded its snowmaking capacity with higher-efficiency snow guns and energy-saving compressors, improved terrains to give beginner and novice skiers a smoother ride, and implemented snowmaking upgrades in anticipation of its hosting the Winter World University Games in 2023—all in addition to being home to the longest glades in the East.
