Mad River Glen Lift Tickets

Mad River Glen is a hidden gem that is located approx a 1 hour drive south of Burlington and 1 hour north of Killington. It is known by the locals for it’s challenging terrain, for being one of the only ski resorts in North America that still operates a single one-person chairlift, and for being one of the only resorts that does not allow snowboarding. Tickets here will usually be cheaper than the other major ski resorts in VT.
