Spread across an incredible six mountains, Killington is New England’s largest resort and worthy of its reputation as the ‘Beast of the East’. The region is perfect for mixed abilities, and is a popular option for stateside school ski groups who we know love its huge diversity of terrain. Boasting 155 trails, Killington gives excellent scope for progression and its beginner programmes are superb. Even better, you can expect great snow all season, thanks to high annual snowfall and extensive snowmaking.
