Description

The singletrack snowshoe trails loop through the mountainside starting from the Sugarloaf Outdoor Center and reaching all the way to the alpine slopes. There are multiple loop options along the well-marked trails. For trail pass prices, visit the Sugarloaf Outdoor Center website

The lodge area has plenty of room for warming up, a retail and rental shop and the Bull Moose Cafe for post-snowshoe lunch and cocoa. If you haven't had enough, there is also an ice-skating rink just outside the lodge area.
