January is SuperSaver Month at Smugglers’ Notch Resort

Family fun at Smugglers’ Notch Resort runs the gamut from a to z – airboarding to zip lining – so it’s no wonder the Resort has been recognized as #1 for its family programs for 13 years by SKI Magazine readers. There are activities for all ages, and Smugglers’ stands by its Family Fun Guarantee, which states that each member of the family will have fun or that portion of the person’s package will be refunded.

Families can enjoy time together snow tubing, ice skating, and exploring the woods and meadows on a snowshoe trek. The ArborTrek Zip Line Canopy Tour provides a bird’s eye view of the winter woods as riders fly down the lines, rappel and cross suspension bridges, and the tour has enjoyed rave reviews from families who appreciate sharing this exciting experience. Especially popular among older children and their parents is airboarding, sliding down the mountain slope on an inflated sled that is steerable and moves faster than a snow tube. There are nightly family activities, such as I-Did-A-Sled, where families good-naturedly compete as teams to build a sled that can withstand a launch off the learning hill.

Family fun at Smugglers’ happens indoors, too. The FunZone draws all ages with its indoor games and climbing inflatables; from the giant slide to the inflated obstacle course, children and parents enjoy a bouncing good time together. Arts and craft classes include ceramic painting, a beading studio and more.

January is SuperSaver month at Smugglers’, offering the lowest rates of the winter season.
