The most challenging ski resorts in New England

As any skier will tell you, you are never at a loss of places to ski in New England. There is something for just about everyone, small hills for beginners and steep mountains filled with moguls and hidden runs in between trees for the experts. Among the best places to do this is Killington ski resort. This mountain features not one but five different peaks and plenty of double diamond runs, each of which will provide you with a ride that you will never forget. You can choose to ski down the one of the many trails so steep that they will be sure to separate the men from the boys. Or you can take one of the many detours that the mountain was made for and take a nice scenic ride trough the trees where you will never know what's ahead and so every turn becomes another adventure just waiting to be discovered. If your feeling ambitious, them make a turn onto one of the many trails built with moguls and test your skills against the mountain, who will win, well that's up to you. Then when you're finished for the day spend the night at one of the many first class resorts that Killington has to offer. Start with the Killington Grand Resort Hotel located on 228 East Mountain Road next to the Snowshead base lodge It has the comfort of being located within walking distance from two of the mountain lifts, so when you wake up and want to start skiing you don't have far to go. The hotel also has such features as a swimming pool restaurant and fitness center. The prices for this hotel start at one hundred fifty dollars and jump to over three hundred during Christmas time. If a hotel is not for you then rent one of the many condominiums located in sunrise village located adjacent to Bear Mountain base lodge. This is Killington's premier ski-in, ski-out property also located within walking distance of several lifts. Enjoy the feeling of curling up by a nice warm fireplace and drinking a cup of hot chocolate or soak up the warm feeling of a hot tube. Prices start at one hundred twenty dollars for a one bedroom and three hundred for a three bedroom, and rises to four hundred for a one bedroom and as much as eight hundred for a three bedroom. With plenty of lodging and skiing options available, it is safe to say that Killington is the best and most challenging ski resort in New England.
