Pico Mountain
At 3,967 feet, Pico Mountain rises boldly in Vermont's Green Mountains, offering an authentic New England skiing experience since 1937. With 58 diverse trails spread across 265 acres, Pico combines rich skiing heritage with intimate, family-friendly atmosphere that sets it apart from larger resorts. Our mountain maintains its independent spirit while delivering modern amenities and exceptional snow conditions.
Seven lifts strategically positioned across Pico Mountain ensure smooth access to every corner of our terrain. Our high-speed quad, the Golden Express, whisks you to the summit in just over four minutes, while our network of double chairs serves dedicated learning areas and advanced terrain. This thoughtfully designed system maintains shorter wait times and better-distributed skier traffic throughout the mountain.
