Daily lift tickets at $72 are not cheap, but you can reduce the daily price by buying multi-day tickets. As there are over 150 trails and 27 lifts, you could easily ski a new run each time you came down one of the 6 mountain peaks. Your lift ticket is colour coded to your parking area and signs on the hills ensure you do not get lost, end up on a trail outside your level of comfort or ski the last run to a parking lot where your car is not. Several gondolas make the trip to the top a bit more comfortable in inclement weather and there are enough lifts in total so you are not spending more time waiting to go up than skiing down.

There is a ski school and child care, slow zones, family friendly areas, an area for freestyle terrain and a snowboard park. You can rent or buy or purchase those items you forgot to pack. Guided mountain tours are offered on the hour at the Snowshed and mountain orientation is given at the K-1 station.

Each base station has at least one place to eat-the trail map will have a succinct description of gastronomic offerings. It is not always open, but the restaurant at the top of Killington Mountain has the best views and serves up decent lunch food.
