Snowshoeing
Snowshoeing is
allowed on Okemo Mountain (lift access is not available) and at the
Okemo Valley Nordic Center.
At the Nordic Center, you can enjoy a hike
through pristine meadows and hillsides on 13km of dedicated
snowshoe trails. A Trail Fee is required. Check out our Snowshoe Trail
Network. For more information on the Okemo Valley Nordic
Center, visit our Nordic
Center page.
Or, take a hike on Okemo Mountain! Take a
self-guided trek on Okemo's 5km maintained network of snowshoe
trails that trace the periphery of Okemo Mountain on Easier and
Intermediate terrain. Snowshoeing is great exercise and you can
enjoy it at your own pace. Print out our Okemo
Mountain Trail Map and follow the purple dotted lines for your
snowshoe hike (or pick up an Okemo trail map when you get here).
There is no trail fee to snowshoe on the trails of Okemo Mountain.
Although, snowshoers are not allowed on the lifts. Be sure to stay
on the side of the trail at all times and avoid snowshoeing
alone.
Equipment
Atlas® Snowshoes rentals are available for half-day, full-day
and multi-day at the Okemo Valley Nordic Shop. Visit the Nordic Rates
page for details.
