On-Mountain Kids Favorites
"Christopher Robin was sitting outside his door, putting on his Big Boots. As soon as he saw the Big Boots, Pooh knew that an Adventure was going to happen, and he brushed the honey off his nose with the back of his paw, and spruced him-self up as well as he could, so as to look Ready for Anything." –A.A. Milne
Kids have an innate sense of adventure. They see it everywhere. They seem to find the little stashes, tight tree lines just off the trail, and know the best activities around the mountain. Here is our Kids' Top Ten Best Sugarbush Adventures that everyone should check out. As if they didn’t know already…
#10: Best Celebrity to Ski With: Kids love making turns with adventure ski pioneer John Egan!
#9: Best On Mountain Eats: The Waffle Haus, of course! Located across from the Gate House lift at Lincoln Peak - waffles make every day just a little sweeter.
#8: Best Excuse to Scarf a Hot Dog: Our Annual Hot Dog Race! Enter this fun race for kids ages 3-6 located on our famed Sun Kid Terrain Park!
#7: Best Trail on the Mountain: This one is unanimous… kids LOVE Sleeper! Take your folks up the Gatehouse lift and see how many more jumps you can find than they can. Bet they can’t keep up.
#6: Best Evening Activity: FIREWORKS! Join us on New Year's Eve and Presidents' Weekend for our Annual Fireworks Displays. Great views to be had from the Valley House and of course from the Castlerock Pub and Timbers restaurant, both great options for a special dinner out with the family.
