Since Massanutten is a four-season resort and offers great skiing, the off-season use of the chair lifts for a scenic view of the mountains is a great idea. It was another one of those things that made purchasing the activities pass ($99) worthwhile. Regularly it would cost $15/adult, $9 for children to go up the lift. However, since it was sort of a freebie, we went for a ride! The lift runs M-W-F from 9AM ‘til 3PM weather permitting, and starts near the Ski Lodge deck. The weather was almost perfect the day we went, but it was a bit hazy so the views were not quite as clear as they might have been. The lifts accommodated the usual 2 passengers, so I rode solo as the picture-taker. The ride itself was so relaxing, just taking in the scenery on the way up to Massanutten Peak. I think we changed lifts about halfway up. Once at the top, we were free to walk along the trails and see more spectacular views…a panorama of the surrounding hills and valleys. The chair lift ride was well worth the time, especially relaxing after a full morning of more active pursuits.
