West Mountain Gearing Up for Summer 2023

QUEENSBURY — West Mountain is busy preparing for an incredible summer with an extensive array of outdoor activity offerings. Here is a list of 2023 summer activities at West Mountain: 

Aerial Treetop Adventure

Aerial Tour + Chairlift access rates are $35 (7-12 years), $49 (13+ years) with an add-on picnic lunch. Take an exhilarating tour through the trees in West Mountain’s five-acre Aerial Treetop Adventure Park. The park offers six high ropes courses for all different ability levels – beginners to advanced. The park is situated at the peak of West Mountain and is nestled among the treetop canopy. After taking the chairlift to the park, adventurers will be met by the West Mountain climbing crew who will outfit guests with helmets and harnesses before participating in a safety clinic. Adventurers will then climb up to a treetop platform to begin their journey through rope spider webs, zip lines, log waves and more.  Aerial treetop tickets include 2 hours in the park and the chairlift ride to the park and back to the lodge (approx. 3-hour tour). 

Mountain Biking & Trail Riding Access

2023 Mountain Biking + Chairlift all day rates are $20 for ages 12 and under, and $30 for ages 13 and up. West Mountain’s Bike Park has over 25 cross-country and downhill trails. Riders are welcome to bring their own bikes or rent from West, which offers Scott mountain bike rentals and protective gear packages that can be pre-reserved online. Picnic lunches – packaged in an eco-friendly box and placed in a picnic basket, prepared daily by West’s in-house chef – can be added on to your bike tour. Enjoy a relaxing picnic lunch on the mountain before, during or after your ride. 

Tickets and programs are available online at westmountain.com.
