Park Update: Killington Mountain Bike Park

Everyone at Killington is catching the mountain biking bug this summer.

Killington's Mountain Bike Park is legendary for gnarly steeps off Vermont’s highest lift-served peak, and with the help of Gravity Logic, The Beast of the East is stepping it up.

Snowshed may be a beginner area during the winter, but thanks to new trails through the woods, it’s a freeride paradise. Check out Blue Magic, Step It Up and The Beast.

Killington added a second lift to serve mountain bikers daily.

Saying the bike park crew has been busy would be an understatement. Three new top-to-bottom trails, fresh berms, jumps, bridges and entrances on another 5 trails, and they’re still kicking!

Excavate. Buff. Test.

Repeat.

Long top to bottom runs link tabletops, step-ups and step-downs with big berms and hips. Send it!

It's Hammer time in this edition of Weekly Dirt from the #killingtonbikepark. What's your favorite MTB trail? #beast365

Killington also added a mountain coaster this summer, so ride under the track or gap over it.

Three bridges made with steel from the original Killington Gondola’s mid-station terminal send you over the track.

Killington will be one of the last bike parks standing in the East this fall. Check out the operating schedule.
