The 300+ mile Catamount Trail offers a unique perspective on winter in the Killington region. The Catamount Trail begins at the Massachusetts border and travels north to the Quebec border, traversing the local area between the CCC road in Shrewsbury and Mountain Top Resort in Chittenden. Beginning at the CCC Road, the trail briefly follows a moderately used snowmobile route to reach the CT. It then continues as a remote backcountry ski along the undulating western flanks of Shrewsbury, Little Killington, and Mendon Peaks, before crossing the popular Bucklin Trail and entering the Rutland City Forest. It is mostly at elevations of 2000′ feet or more so good early/late snow is often available. Continuing north from Route 4, the CT follows ungroomed trails, groomed snowmobile trails, and the excellent groomed trails at Mountain Top Resort, featuring wonderful views of Chittenden Reservoir.
