| Vermont is wonderful
off-road biking country! The scenery is beautiful as only Vermont can be.
You'll be cycling on the great trails offered at Mt. Snow, Stratton,
Killington, Sugarbush and Jay Peak, often using bike-carrying
chairlifts and trams to carry you up to trail starting
points. |
 |
| DAYS 3-4: mt. snow
mountain biking school
You'll start your adventure with a day of
practice off-road biking near SHP headquarters in the foot-hills of the
Berkshires. Your group will be driven to Mt. Snow for two days of
instruction at the world famous Mt. Snow Mountain Biking School before
heading to northern Vermont. |
| DAYS
5-12: stowe, sugarbush and killington |
 |
| At Stowe you'll spend
three days putting your new and/or improved riding skills into practice
amid breathtaking views of Vermont's mountain scenery. You'll then head
south to the lush, green valleys of Sugarbush for more spectacular
cycling. Your group's next adventure mountain is the great Killington
system of chairlifts and trails.
DAYS 13-18: stratton and mt.
snow
Stratton offers great scenery, with lots of
opportunities for swimming. Everyone's favorite place is Mt. Snow, so your
trip ends with three more days there to enjoy the wonderful trails and
chairlifts.
**Parents and trippers will need to agree to
and sign a release of responsibility form required by the mountain biking
areas. This trip offers some great biking but it is not intended for
"hotshot" cyclists. Note also that the SHP tuition refund, repair, and
replacement plans do NOT cover this
trip. |
