About Okemo Mountain Resort
the best in vermont
Okemo Mountain Resort and the surrounding area is the outdoor enthusiasts dream come true.
The wintertime brings exceptional Vermont skiing and snowboarding on snow that is known as one of the best skiing and riding surfaces in the East year after year. While other mountains talk a big game, we've proven that it takes a lot of pipe, water and power - with highly trained, completely dedicated teams at the reins - to make it happen.
Add to that our cutting edge Parks & Pipes, a top-notch Ski + Ride School and Racing & Competition program, and you've got all the fixins for a perfect Vermont mountain vacation for your family.
