About Hunter Mountain

Hunter Mountain, nestled in the Great Northern Catskills of New York, is a high-energy resort renowned for its accessibility from the New York City metropolitan area. Often cited as the “snowmaking capital of the world” due to its pioneering and massive snowmaking infrastructure, Hunter guarantees robust coverage and excellent conditions across its diverse terrain all season long.

Terrain and Trails

The resort spans 320 skiable acres with a formidable 1,600-foot vertical drop, accessed by 13 lifts. Hunter Mountain is divided into distinct areas, including the challenging steeps of Hunter West, featuring expert runs like Hellgate and Annapurna.
